Mmh... did my motherboard die?

Yeah... I have a very bad problem with my desktop PC and hope that someone can help me: I bought a SATA to USB converter and plugged it into my first USB hub, without external power supply and it got disconnected... so I thought, to many input, try the other one with external power supply... but didn't worked either, same probleme, all external devices got disconnected and the USB HUB was "dead".
So I thought, I should probably try the normal USB... plugged it into and then all my connectors on the back of my PC lost connection! USB & PS2!
So no mouse input etc.
I don't know what I should do, my PC started into vista, but I couldn't control, so I've done a BIG failure: Removed the bios battery and hoped, that after that all will work like before, BUT now my PC awaits input and I don't even come into Vista anymore.
HELP! I have a lot projects on my Desktop PC and don't know how to save them!

I would need some input to flash my mobo, but without my external USB/PS2 input devices that can't work, you know.
I also think, that my MoBo is dead, but we'll see what others think.

you can try to remove flash rom and take it to a electricity technician or maintenance guy he can write the bin file to it using some kind of rom reader/writer

That wouldn't magically fix my input problems with my USB/PS2 connectors, so even when that would let me boot into vista, I couldn't control anything.
