What do you think she has done? Is it as simple as she has put the cables back incorrectly?

Thanks for your help - I'm ok when I'm looking at something but she lives quite far away so I'm unable to help her at the moment.

Probably dislodged an IDE cable - cant' see the drive - can't boot..
( just a guess )
