Not quite there yet after all. I went to Best Buy, bought a super duper 24 inch monitor, and hooked it up. It now boots to a Windows XP screen and goes no further, not even the password entry dialog. I have been through the Setup menu and Boot menu with no joy other than the C: drive being validated. Having reached and exceeded my tolerance for hardware issues in one day, I just turned it off for the night. As opposed to chucking it through the window. Grrrr....
