remove the xdcard and use compact flash. also put camera in set mode and run the battery drain function. it seems to reset the battery voltage meter. clean batery contacts with q-tip and rubbing alcohol. worked for me

Hi!
Probably the CCD is dead. It's a well known problem with S7000. It's a hardware problem, the CCD has to be changed. For S7000 it usually comes with the lens and it makes the repair quite expensive. It's about 250-300$ here. You should contact your local Fujifilm service center.
I work in a camera service center authorized by Fujifilm.

Sorry for the bad news!

the only way to prevent it is buy a XD card

If you are using rechargeable Ni-MH batteries discharge fully using the camera facility. Recharge and then discharge again. Recharge and hopefully the problem will be resolved.

Good luck
