I think I found a short on the 1.25v lines any guesses where I should check? View attachment 15722

Yes great idea to check the capacitors.
Check if you've great sanded the edges too (maybe that, you never know).

I checked the resistance between ground and the 1.25v spot and it read 30ohms so I sanded the edges a bit more and now it reads 19ohms should I continue sending more?

The 1.25V uses higher current, it will have lower resistance naturally. It's OK. I think you are looking in wrong direction.

Ok thanks also I checked continuity and all these are connected to ground

 

[Gman]

The resistance is low enough to trigger false continuity. I am saying you dont have a short there.

That's up to you when you are exhausted of troubleshooting. I'm not sure what else to say about the motherboard
