It's broken and I can't plug it into my PC. What can I do? Is it replaceable? I have 2 of the same camcorders.

No magic dust for that. Send it back for repair. Or if you are a competent electronics tech you can replace it yourself.

Looks like I'll just get new one from eBay. I can sell this one for parts, as the only problem with the cam is the FW port on the tape heads (which I might be able to clean).
