is my piggyback computer dead?

i have a gold box and i was working on my car when i diecied to go work out. I started up the car and the main screen came up then i get this _ that is all i get. what the hell is that? the car runs fine, it is pretty much stock so i don't think that there is anything to worry about. all the connections are good. Any ideas?

Did you even try starting the car again? I get this sometimes with my gay purple box and all i do is switch the ignition off and then back on.

If you still get the problem try disconnecting then reconnecting the battery. I'm sure everything is probably fine...

unhooking the battery did nothing. so i think that it is dead. this just gives me an excuse to get the Power FC. unless someone thinks that it is not the computer. or any other ideas?
