    Any ideas what kind of damage does a shorted processor do?

    Got recently a new laptop motherboard, when I went to power it on after installing it, the motherboard would turn on and turns off immediately (restarting? power cycling?). Found out the processor was shorted.

    So I was wondering which rail should I check? Any chance it fried the northbridge/southbridge? I will start working with it starting tomorrow, so I haven't even checked for schematics yet (can't recall model either).

      Motherboard is 6050A2443401. I attached schematic.

      I'm still not sure what kind of damage a shorted processor would have done. There are 6 pages just for the processor (15-20) in the schematic.

      5V & 3V are present.

      Symptom: All lights turn on and fan running too (1-2 seconds), then all off, then on, keeps going forever like that.
