Also FWIW, this does not seem to be a UEFI machine. The BIOS seems to work

I've seem UEFI boot machines which do not appear to have anything
other than a text BIOS screen, so may be worth double checking for a
'legacy' or similar boot BIOS option...
Yeah, I looked but no "Legacy" option or anything similar.
I've just about given up. Found a local distributor that has all of the
components I need for a clean build in a new box. It will have an Intel
i5-4640, so not quite as energy efficient as I would like, but at least
it should boot. :)
