Thinkpad x21 won't power on.

I bent the input part of the power supply a little while it was in the jack and the comp died. Thought I smelled something, but hard to confirm. Now it won't power up with or without the cord in, or while it's in the dock. I've heard that replacing the dc input might fix this, but wouldn't the comp run off the battery if that was all it was? The battery was full at the time. This is my first time posting here and I'm not real familiar with the etiquette so I hope this is all done right. Thanks in advance.
