I have the 2 x 5 inch crystal display and when windows is booting it flashes and when windows is fully booted it stops flashing and goes dead. like there is no power. I have installed jalcd and thats it but the backlight has not even powered up. Am i doing something wrong??? + i am using xp64 so i dont know if there is a clash there or not?

i feel stupid im haveing a problem all i get is

"jkdffsdjkfds.,.,$$$%///"

Thats not it but its random. I just cant seem to get anything to appear correctly on the screen.

Any 1 help me with this.

Thanx

EDIT

i think it has something to do with my serial port being to slow or too fast for the crystal screen?

Any one on this?
