@hyjn can your clarify this "the inner works continue to move & at a certain point stops taking pictures" for me? I am not sure what you mean by continue to move. what does the camera do when you turn it on?
I'm thinking that a battery door might be making intermittent contact with the batteries, on and off. I have a similar problem with my Canon A480. This is pretty common to most if not all, compact cameras.
The solution is to repair or replace the battery door.
