4550 boot problem

My Dimension 4550 will not boot.  It turns on, the code lights are all green, all I get is a blinking cursor.
 
I run the dell diagnostics in the quick test and it tests fine.  In the longer tests in gives me an error code of 0F00:0442 while testing the ide drive.
 
Any help would be appreciated

    mugsman66,
     
    Can you boot the system to the Resource CD or to the Windows CD?  Can you boot the system to Safe Mode using the key during startup?
