This board had corrosion on components C7101, R7101, R7132 and tracks connecting to U7100
After replacement of above and U7100 I have
0.95v on L7410/20/30
all_sys_pwrgd 3.2v
pm_sysrst_l 3.3v
put_rst_l 3.3v

Fan spins initially then stops then spins long time. Currents remains at 0.45a with SSD inserted. 0.36a without SSD.
No USB activity as indicated by snow edition stick.

Just tried known good BIOS - no difference still 0v on L7210/20

How could a cpu problem explain why 0v at L7210/20 ?
Surely lack of voltage here means no power to cpu.

I have to say my 'known good BIOS' should really only be 'assumed good' as it was from another yet to be repaired 820-00840.
Worth trying a reprogrammed BIOS. Late here in Oz - something for tomorrow. Thanks
