But I can't see anything TO update the bios!

With all that gear in, you should at least get some kind of response from it, either via the BIOS screen or a beep warning.

If you don't get anything, try resetting the CMOS - remember you have to unplug all power to the motherboard first (if the computer is off but the PSU on it is still getting 5V passed through it). If that fails, the motherboard is dead.
Well I tried all that the last time I had the parts, but we couldn't solve the problem. It was assumed the board was knackered, but Scan wanted memory, CPU and mobo returned. Only the processor was duff, so the mobo SHOULD be fine. I don't know if I trust their judgement on this one.

Anyway, bundling it off to some AMD specialists, hopefully they should get it up and running
