have you checked the gary socket? if the legs of the gary chip have turned green, they should be cleaned with a nylon brush or similar.

also, since you replaced some parts, are you 100% sure you did not break any traces/vias in the process? I woud check all traces going to/from the "green" area.

sometimes even vias occasionally fail due to coorrosion damage.
