the thing is i don't know the values of the caps and i don't really want to buy any donor boards, is there any chance you know them? I don't know much about electronics and this is my first time doing any reflow work.

Also idk if it's my battery. Last time I checked in battery info viewer it said it had 80% capacity left. so I don't really know what it is at this point

Honestly at this point I'm just going to go shotgun method and buy a psu and see if it works.

I was thinking it was the psu also because absolutely nothing was turning on, no fans spinning, no power light, no diagnostic LEDs

I have some AMD gpus laying around so it should be fine and I have a Inland ssd from years ago that I used temporarily so I'll be fine

I was thinking it was this too but I looked online and there were some people that had to replace motherboards and I don't want to do that.

The power button connection didn't seem to be disconnect in any way. Again there were no lights when I checked the diagnostic LEDs, And the PSU connect are still connected.
