No, although I found complaints from other people about ASUS boards in my search.... the board is an ABit KN8 Sli. Solved the problem though.... seems that Vista would install fine from the desktop and recognise the drive, just wouldn't install when booting from CD.... did all kinds of strange things.... damaged the XP install that I was going to erase, and most alarmingly when I came to test the HDD it said that the partition on the disk was bigger than the actual size of the disk!!!!?!
Anyway, all solved now thankfully, but quite worrying nonetheless.
Thanks for the suggestions though
