Thanks for the reply!

How do I make sure the dvi header is ok?

I was actually beginning to suspect hardware issues because of the lack of BIOS output (but I've never done anything with DVI or HDMI before, so I assumed I was probably doing something wrong...).

Unfortunately, I removed the PCI bracket from the DVI connector (which is connected to the mobo using a ribbon cable) to fit it into my case, so I've probably voided my warranty at least on that part...
