My guess is there is a 9.1V zener diode from the adapter input to ground that blew from trying to dump too much voltage (the ~3 extra V) and is now a short to ground. Unfortunately, if that is the rectangular box fuzz, it may be all SMT components so you may need to find someone that can deal with those.
    Ah. Hopefully not. SMTs are a ***** to try to fix. If it's normal components you're only talking about 2 minutes of soldering.

Many solutions were suggested for this problem, but most of these were largely concerned with the movements of small green pieces of paper, which is odd because on the whole it wasn't the small green pieces of paper that were unhappy.

      This. That diode goes and nothing will power it.
