    Heard it first time, strange. Only thing that I know about power jack is, people put improper tools to clean holes and then stuck there. Result is pins/holes are bend and unable to use it next time.

    Bent pins are more common then they should be, that is for sure, but I don't believe I've ever heard of one "blowing up".

    the laptops about 2 yr old also i found that its caused by lose soilder around the jack pin. If its moved to much it shorts, mine has burnt the board and the metal plate.

    i found this page on the net about repairing it here

    Is it true that motherboards are multilayered, because i dont think ill be able to fix its burn the inside of the board.
