Again the Condenser at the Power-Supply-Board ,thats make the 5V es -20V for 
the e.g. CPU- Unit .
Be carefull about the Condenser, this must have very low ESR- Value !  Tried 
again with other Condenser, look again to the Condenser Parameter.
My Orion has sometimes Display- Booterror with e.g. 18C°, with 20C° 
Temperatur no Problem, i will changed these Condenser like C6, C9 with low 
ESR.
