The fact that the whole screen clears shows that the LCD is being reset,
i.e. all LCD driver chips are getting reset and clearing each pixel, the
default power on state of each pixel is black. So, this should mean that
the LCD itself is OK, as it can go to both black and clear. A ‘RESET’ goes
to each chip and this line is toggled as part of the start up sequence.



I have not looked at the M200 schematic but I’m assuming it uses the
Hitachi type LCD drivers like the M100/102 does. I seem to recall these
take a command word, like to set the ‘cursor’/write position and then the
data to write. Since half of the screen is working properly the data lines
are getting there OK as are any shared chip select and R/W signals. Any
chip select from the main board that is unique to each driver would be
suspect as well as any traces/logic on the LCD board to the affected areas.



I’m not sure that helps, it will be a case of tracking down signals I’m
afraid.

the position seems the same but they come and go with different screen
data, a clear screen shows no bars.. the menu shows some, a basic listing
shows more and it changes as lines scroll

Are you saying the position of the black bars change?
