Hi , not finished yet, just keeping a log.
If I am reading right the output voltages from page 71
PP1v8_S0 - pulses
PP1V2_S3_ENET_INTREG - pulses
PP1V05_SUS - a nice and good 1.06v steady
PP1V05_S0_PCH_VCCSADPLL - pulses
PP1V5_S0 - Pulses
From Page 72
PP3V3_S4 - solid 3.33v
PP3V3_S3 - pulses...

Vcore at c1682, c1680 and c1683 no pulse at all. I also checked r7510 pin 1 for good measure (not necessarily in that order).
Note: I'll have to learn how to read...
