I'll look around and see if I can find any more spare batts and 8.0 supplies. Wonder what shipping would be like?

To Ireland, roughly $25...Problem is, that it is illegal to ship lithium battery internationally via USPS

Thought that was unless it's in a machine .

You are correct, But I did not think that you were going to send him an entire machine. That will cost $75 in shipping.

Firstly, thank you all so very much for your help and offers
I have stripped the machine down (maybe a bit too much lol) and have took lots of pictures for you which I will upload in a wee minute to show you to see if they help. I have noticed that someone has put a make shift mother board battery in and if i recall correctly, the BIOS time was at 00:00 when I was flicking through the settings and didnt think much about it. I have also noticed that there is a small scratch that I can feel with my finger in one of the wiring looms from the main HDD.
