Not sounding good, is it?
Ok, tried connecting via hyperterminal with the hard drive disconnected, and got this:

I then tried plugging the hard drive back in again and turned it on, and bingo, hard drive noise! It stuck at the "Hijack v2.94 by Mark Lord" initial screen. Turned it off, then on again, and once more, hard drive noise, this time it made it to where it did before (the logo screen after animated logo). It flashes for the very briefest of time the "hard drive not found, contact support" screen (something left in memory?). Hyperterminal at this point produced the following:
