John,
How would I do that? Checking in circuit and comparing with the good and bad boards they seem very similar in all combinations of resistance measurements.

Duty cycle =0!
That means the MCU is doing all it can to throttle back the 5V SMPS and is finding it has no control at all.
Possibly one or more damaged transistors on the 5V SMPS module.
I would check Q106 for shorts.

Ludwig,
The QMX will not boot at 7V. 9V will let it boot so the screen shot if with 9V.
As it sits there the 5V varies up and dow a little. If I go to 10V in it varies up 5.8 or so.

Cliff,
it looks like a problem in the control loop.
How and where did you measure VCC?
If really 6 V and more D108 on board #1 must be broken or disconnected. But this isn't the reason for the high VCC. It's only a lack of protection.
Please show a screen shot of Terminal - Hardware tests - Diagnostics. But use only around 7 V input to protect the QMX. And what is VCC in this situation.
