    If the LCD is wired improperly it can permantly damage the lcd. (hence no boxes)

    I have done the following

    DEFINE LCD_COMMANDUS 4000
    define LCD_DATAUS 555

    As well as replaced the LCD with a new one, but still nothing?

    You will need to find out what makes the two units different. Compare datasheets. This difference could be the problem.

    As far as i know, KS0070B and HD44780 are compatible. You need to check the pinning of the displays, they may be different. You also need to make sure that the display is ready to recieve data before you use LCDOUT, some displays are really slow. Give it a couple of seconds.

    I have bought myself a 100k potentiometer and connect it to the LCD's Vo Pin, but does not get any response from the display?

    A strange thing, I don't know if this is supposed to do it, I'm a bit new in electronics.

    On the LCD's VDD Pin I get 5v when I remove the LCD, but when the LCD is connected I only get +-1.2volt, is this normal?
