Thanks for that, but it's stopped working altogether now. Even with the disks disconnected it doesn't even get to the beep of the POST.
So it's now a doorstop until I can eventually find the time to sort it out!

If yo install the drive on IDE1 as master & insert a start-up floopy disk for Win 98 or XP. after setting your bios to 1st. boot from floopy at the A:\ prompt type fdisk then delete all partitions. switch off P/C & restart to bios & set CD to 1st. boot then restart with XP CD in your CD reader you will be given the option to create a partition on which to install XP or provided with a report on the state of your hard drive & the reason for any failure to accept installatio of the OS.

Thanks for your reply; but no, it won't boot from anywhere with the Seagate drive attached.

are you able to boot from other media (boot CD for example)? if so see if the drives can be accessed from there and wiped
