I have an old damaged notebook which the LCD is still in good condition. I have disassembled it and take out the good parts (HDD, keyboard etc). I wish to use it to replace my CRT for my PC since its much smaller (space) compared to the bulky CRT. Let me worry about the mounting, enclosure and stuff. i just need to solve this 1 question. Is there any device to make it possible to connect the LCD to the AGP port in my PC?

the LCD is from a DELL Latitude C300 Notebook.

wow bro that is some serious mod you're doing..

first of, you will need to get a pinout diagram of the c300 notebook lcd port

you could cut and join wires to a unused "male" vga cable.. LOL if you're willing to risk go ahead mate!
