It just went, burnt, for no reason, I sent it to repair and it burnt the new motherboard while they were testing it ... I didnt have it connected when that happened either.
It was running on battery, the battery was low and i wasnt home so I turned it off, got homa about 15 mins later, tried turning it on, and NOTHING... thats when i brought it to a repair shop and they told me that it was the motherboard, but that it had BURNT.they installed a new one and while testing the same thing happened.
What could burn a new mother board?
strange though, there was no fire nor smell of smoke
Usually a "fried" motherboard will result from a faulty AC adapter / power supply. If the voltage it provides is too high, kiss the motherboard good bye! Most adapters output voltages around 18-19 volts at around 90 watts. If the adapter malfunctions, the voltages do not have to go much above the range to cause havoc.
If the repair shop did not FIRST check the voltage of the AC adapter before plugging it into a new motherboard, I would seriously consider a new repair shop!
Most times the motherboard is the
problem that causes the solder to melt from a defective relay. You will need to
inspect the compressor start relay and capacitor to insure that they did not
cause the relay on the board to overheat. Also check that you have 12 volts dc
going to the evaporator and condenser fans while running because if for some
reason the fans are defective and you change the motherboard while one of the
fan motors are defective your new motherboard again can be damaged. Here is a

questions you may have Thanks Sea Breeze
check the Cmos battery and computer RAM modules make sure they are securely seated with no dust built up or in the sockets on some motherboards cmos batteries are soldered in
check you CPU make sure its securely seated and has thermal grease might be getting to hot
another possible reason could be a memory dump you might be running to many programs at the one time putting to much strain on the CPU central processing unit
hope this helps
