Welcome to the forums
Without having the machine here to test, it's difficult to diagnose.
What happens if you remove your cooling device and simply have a single hard drive with your XP install on and no other devices plugged in? No sound card etc.

If you have a DVD drive that has a problem, the mobo may not be detecting it properly. The
upshot of which is normally a very slow boot, or no boot at all.
Try it with the DVD drive disconnected.

Set up in the bios 1st like you did then you need to reboot and press f8 i think or what ever option it is to get it to the raid options and then set up what raid you want ie

I'm just in the middle of building a HTPC, which uses W7 - it has the ability to stream Video, TV, Music etc., using the
media streaming functions and a BT Homehub 2 over wireless from a Freesat setup.
Managing to watch TV upstairs on a different channel to downstairs on my PC using a Haupauge card, and fitted it with 1.5Tb of drives at the mo, in an Antec P182B.

No, we are not affiliated with DFI in any way, so no special treatment
All I can suggest is to go directly tot he DFI site and start and online RMA, I think they will contact you and let you know what info you need to send with the board.
As far as I know, when you start the RMA online, it'll ask you for a few numbers
off the board. Easy enough.

Is a GTX260 out of the price range?
Advance Technologies | Zotac graphics cards - Zotac
Pci-Express graphics cards - Zotac 8600GT Graphics Cards - Zotac 8400GS Graphics Cards
£112 here.
If the missus uses any software that can use cuda then its an Nv card you want i reckon.
If it was just games i might have a different view.

Wait.
Wait until the pound starts to show signs of an improvement. The British economy is still shrinking whereas the US economy has shown signs of growth. This all adds up the sky high prices over here, you only need to look at the price 800MHz DDR2. Not so long ago i bought 4GB for a friend which cost me £40. That same kit now runs at close to £80.
Wait a while.
