Hey Duke. This board at first was only half chiming when I got it. Nothing plugged in except speaker. Minor liquid damage around clock. First thing I did was reoaired a trace leading to Y2805 and replaced the clock chip itself. After that I got full a chime for 1 or 2 boots then it went dead. Now the fucking thing is missing S3's and everything else down the line. And of course with my luck PM_SLP is missing!!! I'm getting kind of tired of being defeated by this type of issue. LOL. :) Do you think that because reworking the clock area got me a full chime a couple times that this being dead now is most likely related to clock/bios as well? What do you think I should do? Besides sell my equipment on Ebay.

Thanks man. Have a good one.

Probably crap under the SMC and/or PCH. But could be any corroded trace/resistor really. R7402 also suspect.

Hey Duke. You were right. Removed edge bonding from PCH and flowed some flux under it. Through in the cleaner and all good. Thanks again dude.
