Do you know anywhere i could find more information about lines like PM_SLP_S5# I could find and check across the board to see if im missing one of those lines? Im likely suspecting the same if its becoming a common theme among newer boards with how they are designed....

That is one thing i did notice is the test pads arent shiny at all, loads of them are off colour or dull.

I have barrel jacks on order for my bench top power supply so will update when i got those in rather than just injecting 19v with probes at the dc in jack. Thanks for the suggestion...

I dont see any twisting in the chassis or the board at all so im doubtful it being an issue caused by flexing/twisting of the board over time.

I did already consider this and tried it but made zero changes at all in behaviour. Temperature of the board also made zero difference in case the board could have only worked while hot or cold due to issues with the solder joints somewhere....

Is there going to be any way to tell if its cpu or memory related as im pretty sure bios can be ruled out at this point?

Thank you for the information...

Attached is a picture of the backside of the board and updated measurements i took to include the cpu power inductors...

Hello everyone,

I have an ASUS Vivobook 14 OLED M3401QA which is not posting. Currently when plugged into power/turned on the power indicator will illuminate and the battery indicator will flash white roughly once every 3 seconds. Leading up to this it would sometimes turn on and then other times not turn on, furthermore it also showed a screen saying "new cpu installed, fTPM/PSP NV corrupted or fTPM/PSP NV structure changed" and then a screen telling me to recover the bios however it is no longer even posting at this stage.

The diagnostics steps I have attempted...

Attached is the boardview. You need to use a program called BoardViewer to view it....

Thank you. Do I need to transfer over anything from the dumped bios like serial number, mac address, etc?...

Trying to recover the BIOS on a asus vivobook 14 M3401QA as i believe it to be corrupted however I am struggling to make a recovered bios image myself. Attached is the bios dump from the laptop.

CPU - Ryzen 5 5600H
