Re: OT Convert laptop screen to flat monitor?



Stuart,

The chances are that the interface is digital or in some modern units, LVDS.

If it is digital, and you know the manufacturer of the display, you can get
a PCI interface to drive the digital interface or you can buy a VGA driver
for the display but the are not cheap.

Do you know the part no. and manuf of the display?

Dave...
