Warren Jones the only separate board I can think of would be the DC POWER JACK BOARD. Check the attached images to verify that this is the part you are looking for. As for the burnt/charred traces, on the logic board, it would be great to see a picture of it. Once you replace the burnt out component, reevaluate your computer. It is possible that it overheated the CPU prior to shutting down.
