I have had the Same problem.. but after some precision work.. its Alive again first time was the worst.. but now I have opened it up like 5 times.. eaven did some "modding" like changed the LED lights Open it up.. I mean totally disassembled it.. clean each part with alcohol and carefully put it back together.. the USB connector PCB is soldered on to the MainBoard.. so U have to DeSolder that.. oh.. and when reconnecting the cables ( "flat copper things" ) remember to open the clamps.. tweezers help a lot when putting it back together and seriously.. be careful.. those cables are fragile and the components are afraid of static electricity.. I work in Electronics company.. so I have done stuff like that for years.. and it was still a damn pain in the A**
