My Orion exhibited similar behavior, but not during an update, and I traced the 
problem to low voltage.  The Orion was "accidentally" running on the backup 
battery because the power supply connection came undone.  I was looking at the 
power supply volt meter and all seemed fine until I found the disconnected 
wire.  Restoring 13.8 volts solved the problem.  The symptoms were exactly what 
Jim described - display out and all!  I hope that is all that is wrong with his 
Orion!  73, Bill
