I bought the GPIO screen for my Pironman 5 to use as an screen, but when i instal it the gpio led flash in al colors and stay on even when the mini pc is turned of, how do i fix this and get the proportions right because when I use an app on the screen its all wierd and compressed, I wiped the SD card with the OS on it and Im gonna start all over again but I don’t know it it will work this time, is there something that doesn’t work or sum?
