AVR-Chat

My AVR Dragon seems to have died.

I programmed one board, swapped boards to program the next one and noticed
that Studio reported an error and the LMxxx regulator on the board was
getting hot.

Both boards have been programmed many times in the past.

Now when I connect the Dragon to a target board it is apparently shorting
Vcc to Gnd.  

The problem is on the Dragon board itself (as opposed to through the USB
cable) because it happens even when the USB cable is unplugged from the
Dragon.

Is there anyone that might have the capability to repair it?  I’m willing to
reimburse reasonable costs…
 
Cheers,
