You have the R1 and G1 wires reversed
This is Geoff's standard text routine: page 21 in the 5.1 manual, probably 22 in 5.2
When you scroll left to right the leftmost line of pixels is left from the previous write. The BOX command writes a BLACK area to the screen to avoid this. Try running the program with that line commented out and you will see what I mean.
You have to do this by writing the text out and then rewriting it in the background colour
e.g.
[code]
DO
text 0,0,"hello",,,,RGB(white),rgb(black)
pause 400
text 0,0,"hello",,,,RGB(black),rgb(black)
pause 400
LOOP
[/code]
