Hi,

I recently picked up a GBA SP which is a great upgrade from my original game boy (mainly the screen quality and front-light). However after playing for about 30 minutes, I then went to read and found it hard to focus on the text; I was seeing double! Going back to the GBA SP I notice that the image is slightly ghosted/blurred vertically. I've had the thing for about a week and didn't notice at all until I looked really closely. It's most noticeable with light text on a dark background. I wondered if anyone else had noticed this, or if I've just got a duff one. I'm pretty sure it makes no difference if the front-light is on or off; again this is quite hard to notice, but enough to screw up my eyes over a bit of time, and easier to see the issue with the front-light on.

Edit: forgot to make it clear this is when playing original game boy games. However trying a GBA game, I'm pretty sure it suffers from the same issue. The graphics are far more complex so not as easy to see.

Answered: My first few searches failed me, but I have now found the answer here: http://www.gpforums.co.nz/threads/147081-Important-GBA-SP-war...

Thanks
