Unless it was dipped into a vat of acid, was hit by lightning, exploded, or fell from a VERY high place, then something must be recoverable.
How did it "die"?
Surely some of the stuff in it must work...

What happened to it? Unless the power supply caught fire and blasted the inside of the case it's hard to believe nothing's reusable.

i feel your pain, my friend. is there any way you can test the other components to make sure they are dead, or maybe you've already done so?
