The magic smoke has escaped, most probably from a component in
the power supply.

It should be easy to identify the relevant component by sight/smell
but it probably took out other parts as well.

This is an old/obselete machine which will cost more to fix
than it is worth. Time to upgrade.

..... how about replace ?

As it so happens there is one on eBay Australia right now for the sum of
$A31 (approx $US21). The shipping might be a killer though

It's not a power supply problem. Checked and perfect I think it come
from the motherboard or the cpu one.

The pb is that the error code is not listed
