Can you check for a second instance of the program running?

Do you have the transition set to random characters?
What are you trying to do when this happens (scroll characters, or is it just a static screen)
Is the connection to the display solid without stray wires? Good soldering job? Factory built cable?

Just some things to get pointed in the right direction.
