RE: LCD puts load on 12V line only leaving 5V to idle. SSD puts load on 5V line. nt

Oh, I see! I was under the impression that it also uses 5V because there are 4 cables coming from the LCD (yellow=12V, black=GND, red=5V and pink=stand-by 5V), and I thought I remembered that it didn't work without the red 5V line connected. I'll test it right away by removing the red line, LCD should still work then.

Anyway, that's the reason then - many thanks for explaining! I'll now have to figure what a practicable solution involving a second PS for the USB rail will be.
