    Very odd that something like that allowed it to boot to safe mode but not normal mode but well done on getting it sorted.

    i was really suprised when it booted up 1st time after i plugged the cable in. im glad i have got it sorted now!!

    How did the cable get moved?

    I did ask you what you were doing when it went wrong.
