Thank you for your reply Zorn.
I'll check the board tomorrow and I will compare the voltages/signals to a board that produces a correct picture.
If I find any differrences, or solve the mystery, I will post it here. -

Probably you did it, but:
- use RGB cable for display to have direct ULA signals
- check all voltages to see if there are any drops
- double check if you have Z80/ULA, RAM chips working ok -
