Hi Jules,
Sure. send it up if we can't sort it out here and now...
Some things to try....
1) does it go into Firewire target mode when you hold down T on Boot up? (Blue screen with Firewire symbol)

2) Is there a CD in the drive? If so, try holding down the trackpad's button (the part of the pad you'd use like a mouse button) during bootup.. this should eject any media thats in the CD drive..

Can U try both of those and let me know?

Al.
