Screen Problems
If a user has reported that the screen is displaying white/RGB vertical lines. First check
that by either tapping on the touch screen or the knocking the back edge of the console
do the lines appear/disappear?
If you are seeing an intermittent fault with the screen image, disassemble the console
as detailed above.
Once the screen has been removed use small amount of Isolpropyl alcohol on a soft
bristled fine brush and gently clean the connector to remove any flux or dirt from the
connector.
Re-assemble the screen and screw back into place. Re-boot the console with the Hard
drive attached and check to see if the screen still has the intermittent fault.
If the fault continues, contact ChamSys UK for repair/service advice.
