Question "RC Hardware" light: +5V failure

The "RC Hardware" LED on our RC is solid "yellow" (it really looks like orange), indicating +5V low. We removed all our digital I/Os, made sure the pins were clean, then put our voltmeter to it and found out we had no voltage at all on the pins. We figure whatever internal voltage regulator the board has must be blown/fried/dead/[pick your own euphemism]. No magic smoke, but one person thinks the RC might be running a little hot.

Any ideas?
