I have checked down to s0 voltages all are present, ppbus_g3h is 12.59v.
When Powered up it draws 330ma and then fan comes on full speed. Cpu heats but no usb activity. No sign of spillage.
I checked Spi term resistors all ok.
Charger led turns from green to orange.
I tried several efi dumps...
Board was drawing 14ma initially pp5v_s3 was partially short, c7600 was reading 2v, so removed C7600 and u7600 5v was present. After swapping out both components unit rises to 200ma . L7320 and L7310 both read .5 ohm . Would it be safe enough to say the cpu is dead on this?
Any way to tell 100% ?. Voltages seem to be present except for PP3V3_S4SW_SNS 0v and Cpu voltages.
L7220 is reading 4ohms to ground, L7210 is 5 ohms,L7410 8ohms.
I have a board here that had a small amount of liquid spill around J8500 . There is a short on F7000. I lifted F7000 and the short is on point 2 of the fuse the opposite side to the U7000 is fine.
Found U7210 to be short , replaced .
Board now drawing 20v 270ma with no voltage on L7210,L7220...
Possibly but it looks like it was broken off rather than desoldered. I have gone over the board with the microscope and I cannot see any other issues.

Here is the original dump if you could look over it if you...
I found one that supposedly tested 100% but now the unit draws 550ma then drops to 450ma with the same result ie no usb activity and no external or lcd output.
I dumped the original bios 2 times as I usually do and when I write it back now the unit only draws 120ma. I also noticed that l4901...
I replaced the cd32 and now get 20.5v 620ma no display or usb activity then it drops to 540ma. Cpu gets warm.
Im not familiar with these boards . Where to start?
