The E450s have a nifty little power cut-off switch connected to the side panel. If it is not secure, the power supply will not engage. In fact, I've had a few E450s turn off because of jarring near the racks in the data center. A good strong, push forward on the panel from the back of the machine always gets it running again.
If I understand your post correctly, you had a motherboard that did not "work". You then replaced the board -- reseating the side panel in the process -- and it worked fine. My guess would be that the first board is fine too, but the switch was not connected. Try swapping them again.
Good luck.
