Hey,
So my Matrix Portal setup fell of my desk earlier and is now displaying red lines. The LED indicator on the matrix portal seems to be showing things are running okay and it's connecting to the computer, so I think the issue is potentially with the screen, but I wanted to check. I have attached a picture
Thanks,
Kelly

Check all the connections, and verify that nothing has come detatched. Specifically the tabs where the connectors attach to the display board as well as MatrixPortal board.

Easy fixes are always nice.
I'm always somewhat disappointed when I see those surfacemount headers.
