I would gladly try updating the BIOS, but how can I do that if all I get is a blank screen, running fans, and flashing num lock / caps lock lights? Never get the machine to boot, never any text on the screen, never a windows loading screen. Thank You for the advice but I am confused on how I would accomplish this?

I am sorry to hear that after all that work cleaning and replacement components, you still did not get your notebook working. I will try my best to help you with this.
According to this document for Blank Screen LED Error Codes. If the LEDs blink 2 times this issue is a BIOS corruption failure and you need to try Updating the BIOS.
I really hope this works for you, please let me know how it goes.
Good luck and have a great day!
