Do I have a bad Motherboard? What do I do?

So I tried my first PC Build last night, and when I went to power it up, nothing happened- no lights, no fans spinning, nothing. This morning I took it all apart and tried to find the source of the problem. Started with the psu (600W b1 evga) by doing the jumper test with the jumper supplied by evga. The psu fan started to spin, so I moved on to the motherboard.

I connected the power to the mobo, and turned the power on... nothing. The psu fan didn't spin, so I'm assuming there's a problem with the motherboard...?

Is there anyway to fix this, or is this most likely a bad motherboard?

Thanks in advance for any replies!

Updated my post.

I have everything disconnected from the case, and only the psu and motherboard are connected. Since I am completely new to this, my understanding may be wrong... but I would think that the psu fan should spin when connected to the motherboard, and powered up, correct? Wouldn't this be the next step after the jumper/paperclip test?
