laptop LCD question.
Hi,
I wish to get an old (real cheap) laptop and connect my desktop computer to the lcd screen, I need it for a specific location for which a display will not fit. Is it possible? has anyone already done that? what am I facing here? obviously the laptop will have to be dismantled and its LCD would have to be rewired to a standard connector, is this feasible? if this is not the correct newsgroup, do excuse me, a note about where to post such questions is mostly appreciated. thanx, -tzurs. |

It is not a matter of wiring in a connector. You have to have a
special circuit board to drive a laptop display. On Sat, 30 Aug 2003 00:00:43 +0200, "tzurs" wrote: thanx for the tip however, I'm not sure I follow. can anyone shed more light? thanx, -tzurs. "Joel Thomas" wrote in message ... |
