Hi everybody
just wanted to give you a heads up here. With Lost helps and a bit of luck I was able to bring back to life my laptop. That resistence was of critical uses and so once I put it back (stealing from a broken motherboard same as my model ones bought on ebay at 70�) the laptop turned on again. BIOS needed a better soldering as well (as Lost said!)
Thank for everyone's support!!!

Seize your day!

@leonmjj - Hey! So what did you end up doing here, I can't tell for sure from your comment above.
Did you replace the board, or just put in a BIOS, but put it in there properly @Paltek #Paltek = Crap service techs!

Please don't send PM's for help on BIOS edits, I can't help with BIOS in PM's. Please make a thread and I will try to help as soon as I can - thanks!
If you appreciate my efforts and are willing to donate to help improve my hardware, gift cards work for me (Amazn, NuEgg, eBa) - send me a PM
I view the forum like this, please bump your thread 1x every 24-48 hours if no reply

Ciao Lost
I basically bought a broken motherboard in order to take from that the small resistence. Moreover the BIOS on my laptop was re-soldered in the correct way as you you were advicing and the computer went back to life :) Thanks so much for your help
