    I got my enhanced Lattepanda about a month ago with a 7'' display and touch panel. when I plug everything and turn on the device, the Lattepanda loading screen shows fine. but when the system is booted the display flickers (between on and black screen), and after a few minutes the device turns off. A friend who visited me told me the display might be faulty because there is a "plus-sign-like shape of white lines" on the screen. Worth mentioning that an HDMI screen works fine.

    Here's a video (the flickering starts towards the end of the video): https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5O8_Lomp8-4
    by a plus sign I mean there are lines of pixels, horizontally and vertically that don't work properly, mostly in the middle.
    as you can see in the video, windows shows fine but the screen flickers

    Interesting! We check the video and believe the IPS connector broken is more possible but you also told us the bios logo is shown well... Try go into the bios setting page and just stay ,check there is a flicker problem too or not.
