I finally had to pick between a donor board or a hot air rework station for my Game Boy Color
Went with the donor board from a 'for parts' unit on eBay for $12, but the screen still flickers. Anyone know a good guide for checking the ribbon cable solder points?

Twelve bucks for a whole board? That's wild. I was looking at a busted unit last month and they wanted like forty. Makes me wonder what was wrong with your donor if it was that cheap, maybe the screen issue was already there.

Check the voltage regulator first, that cheap donor board probably had more wrong with it. A rework station would have been better for fixing the original.
