WTD: Broken TFT Screen

[Noodleman]

Im after an old, completly dead flat screen if anyone has one.

dont even care if the screen is missing, I need one of the circuit boards out of it for modding a laptop screen to a VGA socket.

See the case modding forums for info, and respect to the person who had the idea ;)

my freind has a 17" broken TFT, he put 2 screw drivers on opposite sides of the monitor and it broke it :rolleyes:

ive just rang him and he says he'll check out the post tonight, im about to email him the link :)

:D

erm, how much does he want for it?

i got a really old tft from a laptop?

[Noodleman]

no good im afraid, I have a screen from a laptop, but it's digital, VGA = analogue. I need the controler unit thingy from the back of a monitor so i can do the analogue -> digital thing.

mr_roll,

your friend dropped me an e-mail about the screen, I replied but never heard anything back.. Did I scare him away with his broken screen :(

If not, can you give him a gentle kick from me if he still wants shot of it.

[mr_roll]

ill phone him tonight, hes @ college atm and wont want to be phoned in the middle of a lecture.

Thankyou :)

You should have asked while I was at work experience, I had to carry around loads of TFT monitors, I could have “accidentally” dropped one…
