    Problem With My Gigablue

    hi guys have a problem with my gigablue quad

    it flashes no problem and shows gigablue on the small lcd screen then changes to a pink screen

    anyone know what that problem could be as it wont boot in, not sure if i need to re-flash the bootloader or not

    thanks

    The pink is normally a hdmi issue. Have you tried a different cable or port on TV. Alternatively, try a scart cable.

    did you try different cable? scart preferable I find, it may be that the auto resolution the box boots openvix in is not compatible with your tv?

    Think of the gigablue image as a "POST" screen on a pc, it is in effect the bios loading, then when the OS (Openvix) loads, it loads the display drivers and this is where the problem arises?

    I hope that's clear??

    all that happens is:

    we can flash bootloader and any image but as soon as its finished flasging it shows gigablue on the small lcd screen on the gigablue and it also shows the splash screen on the tv but the part when ut goes away it shows pink on the small lcd screen but nothing on tv and dose not go any further

    i dont think its dead because it allows us to flash etc
