Ouff, I am using Orcad to design my circuits and this one got me. I am
using 2 diodes to protect an input line, one from ground to the line and
one from the line to VCC. And my dear Orcad misplaced the diodes so
mines where straight from VCC to the GND. Now I have to unsolder 16 (!)
diodes and replace them.
Thank you for taking the time to reply to my stupid question :)

Correct. Maybe you've a bad 7805 (possible) or capacitor (unlikely).
Do you have spares to substitute to find out ?

You haven't mistakenly used a 7905 have you ? (just a long shot)
