Fantastic!! Glad I was finally able to guide you in the right direction. Knowing that R10 was overheating was the key. The good news is that it is unlikely that anything got damaged, especially if you brought the unit up with a dimbulb tester or Variac.
The AES units were eiither a breadboard or the heatsinks were not grounded. In this case, it would be a good idea to install the insulator sand heatsink compound and reinstall, unless you are mounting the PC in an enclosure. That heatsink is at 300VDC above ground potential so one could be bitten real good if they touch it.
