Just installed an A8N-SLE SE mobo only to find that I can't power up at all. This is with a new PSU that I have tested and works fine on another machine. Any help would be appreciated, full specs as follows.

A8N-SLI SE (I'm beginning to hate Asus :( )
AMD Athlon 64 X2 3800
3x 512mb DDR Ram (again tested with no fault found)
480watt PSU
100gig HD
Samsung DVD-RW/CD-RW drive
2x 7600 GT vid cards


Now what I'm getting when attempting to power up is the on board stand by power LED on, but nothing else, no fan activity and no response when the case power button is used. I just know this is going to be something so simple that I've overlooked but I'm hoping one of you kind people can save me hours of staring into the case blankly at the expense of a few blushes, a fair trade off I would say :)

Any help will be welcomed.
