    I have a GameBoy that has the same problem - the 3rd vertical line from the right is completely blank.

    Short of taking it apart and replacing the screen with one from another dodgy GB there's no other way (that I know anyway).

  • Is Zynaps the best side scrolling SEU ever released for the Spectrum?In my opinion it is. What do others think? Was there anything that was better? Derek

    Commando is a vertical scrolling shooter, not a side scrolling shooter. It is heresey to say it on this board but I prefer the C64 version of Uridium also.
    Haven't played Zynaps myself though but will try and get around to taking a look at it.
