Hi, I recently got myself an 3.5" Touchscreen for my Pi4, but it is just showing a white screen for some reason, any help?

I am NOT a professional and I write before I think, so REFRESH THE PAGE!!!  Theres a 99% chance I've edited my post.

 

Also: Please enable XMP/D.O.H.C before asking why your ram is too slow.

usually the manufacturers of the displays have instructions for how to set them up, usually involving a driver of sorts to install.

i've googled the brand, found the webtore, and it had a link right to waveshare's instructions (it's apparently waveshare rebrand / knockoff)

I already saw this, it only refers to the touch, but I have a constant white screen
