Thanks i finally got to the machine to try and found that ubuntu 13.4 works nicely. Boots, mounts the drives and allowed me to copy and wipe the drive; where infact Dells own recovery discs fail to regonize the drives at all. So much for Dell support. so no need to continue the thread

Hi Jonzy,
Since you haven't gotten any help, I'm going to move your message to the Linux forum for more help.
Good luck!
