CPU Vcore will never reach 3V and if it really does the CPU is dead. I ask again is CPU Vcore pulsing on L7310?

It would be very unusual for this to happen. Maybe the multimeter is freaking out. Do you have a scope that can capture the pulse? Did you check on pin 2 of L7310? The other side has lots of switching mode garbage on it which may mess with the meter.
 
Hi Duke, thanks for the reply!!

yeah, its pin2 of L7310, dont have a scope :( , i try other multimeter, and it goes to 3.3 to zero, sometimes 3.9 to zero, its worst. I change the Multimeter cables with other new ones, and the same :(

3.9V on 1.8V rail, this could be a dead CPU, also maybe you are measuring in the unfiltered pin of the coil (pin 1), measure the voltage on R7310.....
 
Fellow Aprendiz!! Thanks for the reply other thing, is there a way to ¨ disable the cpu ´a filter or a resistor, so that i know if the other voltages are stable and not pulsing, If that happens i know the cpu is the problem!! I hope you understand!! Thanks for your time

If you are 100% sure that there are 4V pulses on CPU Vcore then the CPU has already died. I still very much doubt that your measurement is correct though....
