Solved! Power issue ASUS ROG GL502VT-FY017T

[jorlin]

Won't power on with or whitout battery installed. AC adapter is connected and checked ok for funktionality. Removed battery and CMOS clock battery for full reset without luck.
Problem started 2 day ago when I was to power up the laptop and nothing happened. No leds light up at all. The day before all was normal.
However, when I removed the bottom cover to gain access to the battery I found a what seems to be a broken IC. It's placed between the coolinf fan and the HD on the rigth side. The IC abut 2 x 2 cm and the connection terminals is covered with a plastic sheet. The center of it is covered by a small sheet af glass. It's the glass that's has shattered. Anyone who now what IC it is and the function of it?

That part you are showing is the dedicated VRAM chip.

Thanks for the information. Now I have to figgure out what happened with the computer as it won't start at all.. Is it possible that a deffective VRAM could have that impact on the PC, that it won't start at all?
