Thanks for the additional tips, RunnerPack.

As for your other remarks in general I fully adree with everything but I want to point out some things (no criticicing/defending/whatever – I just want to clarify ^^):
You are completely right that considering problems with the displays I should contact the one whom I got them from. But as you can read in my post I didn’t even think that the problem could have originated from the displays (rather maybe the circuit boards or something like that – although I should’ve checked at least before opening a thread…). This was on the hand because I would’ve expected stuff to rather disappear than appear and since I’ve encountered this from time to time since I have my VB. On the other hand this is because the displays were already soldered and I think that TheForce81 did a great and clean job there (which you can see by mere eye already). =) And thus of course it was in no intention of me to show a “failure” of him or anything like that (which is needless to say but you are right that it could unintentionelly have turned out this way in the end) and I would definitely recommend him to anyone in Europe. 😉

Well, as for the displays: I tried to locate the broken connection by multimeter but this did not quite work out with these small connections. So I decided to reapply tin to all connections. ^^ The display is now working again and appears to be stable. =)

So, I’m off playing! 😉

Well, actually, both are soldered displays I got from you some time ago. =)

That’s why I highly doubt that it’s a typical glitchy display problem. 😉

edit: Okay, you are right nonetheless. =) Seems I have to check the solder connections because it works when I press on the cable. Didn’t expect that with a soldered cable. ^^
