How can I tell if this is a board power supply problem in the NI PXI 8106 or a PXI crate problem? The time between shut downs decreases to the point where it will not boot at all.

Hi dlknies-
Take a look at the PXI-8106 User Manual on page 3-14. It says that a blinking Power LED indicates that one of the PXI or onboard supplies is operating outside of the normal limits or is not functioning. You can attempt the repair yourself or you can have it sent back to National Instruments for an RMA.
I hope this helps. Best of luck to you!
