Thanks Peter.... gave this a try but no change I am afraid?! Still have the start up screen with the spinning countdown wheel.

In the absence of see what you're doing, I have to ask: are you holding down cmd-V until the UNIX text appears, or simply holding and releasing immediately?

If, after holding down cmd-V for up to 30 seconds or so the UNIX test has not appeared, try booting from your Leopard DVD and repairing permissions and/or the drive itself.
