You can check if the back of the board has a bad soldering or something else.
And you said it works sometimes,sometimes it doesn't.So how it is now?
Could you post some videos or pictures about it cuz i wanna see it.

Some tips:
1.Remove all the stuffs on the board(the wirings,the driver A4988...) except the power and LCD wiring to see how the LCD goes.
2.Like what i said before,measure the voltage between the 2 pins(both sides of Crystal Oscillator)and GND separately.
BTW,could the board be detected by the device manager?

The two sides of Crystal oscillator and GND are both 0.73V?
BTW,could you find a spare Crystal Oscillator to replace the one on the board?Cuz i suspect the one on the board was broken.
