Hi...

I was wondering if there's anyone who has experience or ideas about building your own lcd/tft display...??

My idea is buying a cheap "old" laptop screen and transfroming it in to a nice display on the wall... (To use it in combination with my computer)

So if anyone has any ideas if it is possible...?!?

Regards,

Gerard

How cheap is an old Laptop display if you want an appropriate resolution?

Then you have to buy a VGA to LVDS (about 100$) converter and a backlight inverter (about 10$)

I think, for this you buy a cheap 15" TFT-Monitor

Hi,

I posted on an other forum as well here in the NL, and Ive found out that it's not possible... If you want to do this then you'll need an old video card with something called Vesa Feature or something...

And I was asking how it was possible and didn't know you would need an expensive converter... I saw laptop screens for $20, on ebay...

Now I'm confused... Do you have a link of some info about this converter your talking about??
