Boot with SystemRescueCd and you can't get to a prompt?
If you do, do you have internet access once you're there?
If neither, take a photo and post a link to a *clear* snapshot.
Yes, your southbridge chipset could just happened to have failed at the same
time; or it failed on the reboot; or USB and SATA are both on the southbridge
that failed so you lost both, basically.
