(Incidentally it refers to itself on its screen panel as a ZT3000, on its
underside as a ZT3300 and on it serial number plate as a ZT3380US)

Thanks Adrian, for some reason the manual section of the HP site for this
unit seemed to point to various other computers. 5.3 is the important bit
after you have passed the obvious bits: I suppose It will become apparent
when you can desolder the power jack and put a new one one: (They dismantle
the whole computer to get the mobo out)

(What the others, - W_Tom, - possibly dont know is that I had reported that
on further inspection, the centre pin is noticeably VERY loose. It might be
a loost soldered joint at the base but surely much better to simply replace
the whole connector?)
