I am using a Raspberry Pi 2 Model B. I have a 3.5 inch Touch Display LCD for Raspberry Pi.

When I start the Raspberry Pi with the attached touch screen it shows only a white screen on the Display.

The Screen is connected via the GPIO port. I am using the Windows IOT OS.

1) Can a screen be connected to the Raspberry Pi like this?
2) Why is only a White (Blank) Screen showing?

I don't imagine windows 10 IOT OS will detect the screen as plug and play. You may need to write software to interface with the screen yourself.

W10 IOT when running on RPI is a headless system due limitations imposed by the amount of RAM memory available.

You should handle your W10 using powershell; after the proper installation of WinRM, run Enter-PsSession '-ComputerName ` only then you can execute remote commands on your Raspberry IOT device.

Your probably noticed that the HDMI is basically, not in use and there is no GUI. However, there are drivers to use the GPIO ports and you can make it great IOT device.
