I am using the official one from Pi. I also have an official from my Pi 4b that I could try but that seemed as it would just confuse the situation further. The way the board is behaving I really think it could be a bad. one. If it was being used in the normal "ibm" PC world I'd have already sent it back. I did see an error flash by last time it locked me out. Is there any link of error log?
This issue of the screen going black is a pretty regular occurance. It occurs when I am doing nothing but reading a web page but certainly when I go to open additional aps. I'd say 80% of the time this results in a non-recoverable situation.
At this point I'm still just running samples from project books and tutorials. It is difficult to spend a hour on it without a shutdown. It is in a case with an active cooler. The cooler has run when i've left it on overnight, else not during normal operation
I actually thought the monitor had gone bad as it was a spare but I exchanged it with my mincraft computer and it has been running 24/hs for several days.
I'd just give up on this one and buy another but I don't want another that acts like this. Advise appreciated.
I can start a fresh Micro card and run a longterm diag if anyone could point in towards one. I'm also willing to run about any 24hr/day program just to see if it stays up.
