sirob777 , the damaged parts are:

Reference designator C6208 10UF 15V 20% Tant-Poly capacitor in a 2012-LLp package

Reference designator C6320 10UF 15V 20% Tant-Poly capacitor in a 2012-LLp package

Reference designator C6853 10UF 15V 20% Tant-Poly capacitor in a 2012-LLp package

all of the caps are part of your audio circuitry. Hope this helps, good luck.

Update

the missing component is reference designator C6321 and its values are identical to the rest 10UF 15V 20% Tant-Poly capacitor in a 2012-LLp package

It is also part of your Line-in circuitry. Just wondering how you blew all those caps. Did you by any chance try to connect an amp or other device to the line-in

Thanks allot! Strange, but after all my laptop sill able to play music and movies sound tracks. It's just that Spinning pinwheel began to appear more frequently. That's why I started to dig.

It think that at the connector area (where C6320 pointing) there is two problems. One SMD plate is empty and one capacitor is damaged. I'll try to post picture which selected bits.

If you let me to ask you, what is the source where you take that info about all components? Do you have the schemes?

I bet your line-in will give you trouble ;-)
