I recently acquired a malfunctioning ASUS P8H67-M PRO motherboard from a friend of mine. He apparently installed some memory incorrectly, resulting in frying the board. When connected up to other components, the board does have power, but will not boot up. The only physical damage it has is on the back, near the left side of the ram slots. There seems to be something that looks shorted out, but this is where my tech expertise starts to fade. I wondered if anyone that knew anything about motherboards could add some info, and if there is anyway of going about fixing the board?
Here's a couple pictures of the physical damage:

I'd really like to get it up and running for a little test bench PC. I thought that possibly just some soldering could do the trick? It looks as if there are just two parts not connected anymore...
Any info or recommendations would be much appreciated. Thanks so much!
