Found a Broken Chip.. No Optical Drive, Wifi and Power Button
Hello, I bought a Macbook Pro 13 inch Mid 2010 from ebay, and the store claimed that the dvd drive, wifi and power button doesn't work. I already knew of the power pads so I could care less about the power button. I tried examining the board for any corrosion or signs of liquid damage but haven't found anything... btw the outer case is perfectly fine. When I removed the logic board to replace the thermal paste because Apple is terrible at applying it, a random chip fell on the table and I cant find where it belongs. Unfortunately, this was months ago and I cannot find the chip, I placed it somewhere in my tool kit.. All I remember is that it has 4 pins on each side and is about medium size (considering that everything is so small) Could this chip control these devices? Oh and I've already tested the wifi and the od with known working ones. Thanks for your help guys!
I think it more closely resembles the purple.

Ignore the blue!! The chip is not as big as the one circled in blue. These chips circled are to give you an idea of what Im talking about.

What about the chip left to the upper ram socket screw. Can you see it?

Take a look at the images on step 14 & 15 as reference here: MacBook Pro 13" Unibody Mid 2009 Teardown while it's a model before yours they are very similar.

"Second image to the right middle next to the cylinder." not sure what you are referring to. Mark it on one of your images.
