What are the specifications printed on that ThinkPad power supply?

16V DC 4.5A Polarity is the same as the empeg supply

Did you smell anything? (Seriously.)

As soon as it happened I checked for smells, nothing strong. There is a faint burnt component smell near the display, but it's so faint I think (hope) that it isn't anything. I took the player apart and didn't see anything that looked burnt either


...

Okay, I just unhooked both hard drives and the unit powers up fine. It was one of the hard drive. If I just hook up one, the unit functions properly. I can handle a bad hard drive.
