Re: (Help) Screen with colors missing.

Oh boy oh boy... So.. Audio is working perfectly, no more hiss. USB hub working wonderfully keyboards working again. Got it closed up powered it on everything going great then I notice once again my screen isnt properly displaying colors. I have the BW v7 screen. The best way I can explain the issue with the colors is where red should be showing its replaced with green. No flickering, no fading images. Everything appears perfectly fine except red isn't coming through... I am half tempted to just leave it as is and just have a miss representation of colors. But part of me wants to know why it happened because it's very strange. Any ideas out there?

check that there is not to much pressure on the screen ribbon cable and connector I had this issue with my gba build when trying to close it up I had to support the ribbon cable with a couple of foam sticky pads between the screen and ribbon as it was pushing the ribbon down and not connecting properly in the connector.

Take it all apart and run it on your desk with nothing pressing against the back of the LCD. If you still have the issue, then disconnect and reconnect the ribbon cable.
