Hi.

Measured diode drop 0 on L7100
Removed R7140 and got 0 drop on pin 2 pad for where R7140 used to be. No short on any of the 3 remaining pads.
Thought it may be bad bypass caps so injected voltage On pad 1 of C1768 @ 1v 4A and all that got hot was the CPU, nothing around it got hot on either side of the board.

Not sure where to go from here?

Uhm, is there a short on PPBUS? 0.4 on L7100 is way too low, possibly shorted high side FET killing CPU and shorting out PPBUS?

Yes short on PPBUS_G3H. Removed F7040 got 12v5 no load from L7030. Chucked in some voltage on pin 2 pad of F7040. CPU getting hot.
I'll check Q7100 now

... Q7100 has a fat hole in it

PPBUS_G3H = 12.6V
L7030 to ground 1.1ohm

I'll post with something more useful
