    Asus X515KA not booting. after flashing bios sometimes i come there. but then dead again

    hallo,

    i have an asus X515KA-EJ058W here.
    just both leds white...he battery blinking without battery connected

    consuming ~400mA and tries to start but nothing happens but fan spinning if cpu gets warm
    if i hold the power button it shuts down and consumes ~30mA i cant spot anything getting warm with thermal....the ec/sio a liiiitle but this is maybe normal beacause it is working ?
    power on again is possible but again 400mA then and no picture.

    now the really strange
    i flashed bios (some version i found on the internet) and resoldered....sometimes it starts then

    the first time i came to windows....restarted and dead again....i tried around maybe new flashed...then without ssd
    sometimes i get to bios....most of the time its completely dead as told above..

    what the hell is going on there ?

    if i read the bios again after it was in the board...there are changes in the bin.
    i think this is normal ? because as it tries to start it writes something to the bios which it has detected ? components or sth ?

    can the bios chip nevertheless be faulty ?

    or is it maybe the EC/SIO ? it has a rare name.... nuvoton NPCE68AAA0BX
    and it might be necessary to program it ?

    also i tried another RAM. but i am not sure if it is really compatible

    i hope you understand my bad english and maybe sbd has an idea

    theres no obvious short when taking the 400mA. only cpu gets warm...seems to work and get warm....but no picture etc.

      if i re-extract the bios after flashing....i cont aopen then in uefitool !
      the same with the original i extracted before i begin flashing the first time

      so something seems to corrupt that bios again and again and again....but....i had a time, i could restart and restart and came everytime to the bios....strange
