Swapping the SSDs out shouldn't have any effect on the mini itself.
Sometimes mine gets stuck on the gray startup screen with no swirly thing at the bottom. This seems to be a known problem according to what I've read on the mydellmini forum.
Running the latest version of DellEFI should fix any problems with Leopard.
Is it booting into XP okay? I have no idea how restore XP to that 'new computer' state. Maybe create a new account for your friend, providing as much info as possible then delete your account.
