So far its been a good progress I guess
Gracias!
I noticed that when CPU is cold the MB turns on and shows the folder, but if a disconnect and connect (after it shows the folder) then it wont boot/show the folder.
When I leave the motherboard with no power for 2-3 mins and connect again it shows the folder.

I disabled it using dosdude method. I thought the GPU whas the reason why I had no video, when plugged the speakers noticed the beep.

Could it be BIOS issue?

I doubled checked,
I tried with 2 known good 85W adapters . Also I have always used my PSU to turn on these boards without any issue.
What should I measure? With or without battery plugged?
Forget to mention:
U4100 was out of position (I dont know what they were trying) so I removed it and put in position some caps and resistors around it.

On external monitor turn white/grey (just like if it were going to show the folder.)
Internal LCD is black, like if it was disconnected.
Caps Lock light does react.
U7100 was the problem. Now the board power up, the screen is white but never shows the folder (with thunderbolt)
Black screen with its screen.
It chimes
Could be Bios since I changed the GPU 084 for one 081005? Could you provide good bios file?
