Hello,

looks like your thinkpad suffers from a very common fault known as BoD, Blink of Death.
You can find many information in this thread:

The other component you point at in your picture is a ADP3421; replacing it gives you a good chance to revive your T20, but not guaranteed.

Good luck,

Nom
