Anyone have any ideas what my problem might be?
Not really, but:
Try one of the many Linux Live CDs and see if that works (you have the benefit of a "clean" install for the duration of your tests. (I'm assuming that your tests have been on a dual-boot PC, rather than fresh installs?)

I got it sorted out in the end, after testing the cables(no problems), installing Debian, RedHat, Ubuntu and windows i still had no luck. The cable link lights were coming on on the hub and the network cards(hub even said there was traffic..?).
After all this i remembered i had changed some settings recently, id turned off the two SATA raid controllers as i wasn't using them and they were adding time to the boot up. After reseting the BIOS(just in case i had changed anything else) it started working again.
Thanks for the suggestions, Dennis Dryden
