The camera is not that much to repair, it is over 10 years old and 260,000 shutter count. To take it to a service agent would cost more than it is worth. As an Electronics Engineer, I have the capability to work on a lot of this stuff. Problem is I am a hardware engineer an embedded work is not high in my workload.
I only tinker in embedded stuff and even less in coding. Fortunately USB connectors are too simple to fix.

Update though, the camera has settled down and seems to be working well. I hope to test a few variables in start-up and shutdown sequences to make sure it will handle more workload until I get a new camera.

Whether the power supply was the problem I am not sure, the beeping has gone but as the problem still existed after the beeping stopped it is probably not the problem. I will keep my mind open now just in case someone else has an issue similar. I know someone has I may try to see if they can sort it out.
