    Subject: [Thinkpad] TP240 won't take AC power in
      Hi guys. Some black gentleman on the subway knocked my 300MHz Thinkpad
    240 onto the floor this morning. He apologized profusely and ran off to
    the next car. The machine was in a nylon protector pouch and it is on
    suspend.
    
    I powered it back up immediately and everything seemed functional.
    However, when I plugged it back up at work, I discovered to my dismay that
    the machine would not take power from the AC adapter anymore. Won't
    charge the battery, won't take power from the mains...would only work with
    the battery. So, the good question is...is it time for a new motherboard,
    or is there something else I should try first? Any user experience in
    this matter? Try a disassembly/multimeter trace first?
