just posted over there

Have you tried this to perform a factory reset.  It may have got it's knickers in a twist.
 
HOLD TUNE/FUNCTION AND WRITE WHILE POWERING ON.
 
If it still doesn't respond after that I can't think of anything else you can do.
 
Does it have any 'extras' like ROM cards or some such plugged in? If so you could try with the extras removed as that may cause an initialization hang too.

I thought I posted over there too, 'cept it turned up here...

Thanks JB, that didn't change anything.

Daryl, thanks, I just ordered a couple of CR2032's (for £0.80p), will give that a shot.

Yup, battery could be the culprit.
 
Also if you have an alternative PSU for it give that a go.
 
Dodgy wall warts can cause also all sorts of hidden problems like this too.
 
But I'm suspecting the battery will be the cure now too.

If he's clever he could sell the spare for the price of both and break even.

I know, I just went spend crazy there...
