      Hi All,

      I bought a Waveshare 7 inch C screen from Amazon and I'm having trouble getting anything to display.

      I believe it's a waveshare just reboxed by Makibes. Model C
      The config.txt appears correct, and I ran a script to install the drivers but the display is not right. On boot to goes from grey to white (when emulation station loading is present) and back to grey (once loaded but not displaying)
      Switching to my tv I can see emulation station running although smaller because of the changes to the config.txt
      Not sure if anyone can help to get the drivers working but if anyone has any advice much appreciated. I don't want to install from scratch preferably....
      It's a 7inch HDMI LCD (C)

      Bought from here on amazon
