Hi Steve,
Yes, I did.. Very good site.
I will post the question there, but I am not hopeful re replies, they are swapping boards mainly, it seems there is no proper service manual for this camera (outside Canon) so repair on board level is very rare attempt.
This camera was hit hard by previous owner, so the original power board was mechanically bent and there were broken components on it. It is quite possible something else is damaged elsewhere, but no visible signs of damage at the first glance.
Luckily, I have another camera (actually two, one of them is IR-modified), so when time permits I will open it and compare the voltages on some points (connectors, test points etc.).

Have you seen the 450D articles over on the iFixit site? They appear to have a few 'how to' documents there.
