I hav a malfunction (mobo fried up) lappy aka Dell Inspiron 600m. everything is fine in the system except the mobo itself. It means that every other parts still can be used - including LCD, HDD, RAM etc.

wut ya guys think i can do with it? Recycle the LCD panel and mod it so dat i can use it as my desktop LCD panel? or any ideas u guys can think of? hmm.gif

So far i bought a 2.5hdd to IDE converter and use the HDD in my desktop system. thumbup.gif Any other suggestions guys? icon_question.gif

Get the LCD,mod it to a secondary display.
You will really need it to play Flight Simulator X. thumbup.gif

Or what you can do is,make a really nice frame(body) for the LCD.
Tease us with your creativity.

Actually can.. just need one of these sets. LVDS board and probably the inverter too... the OSD board is optional.

Also need to make sure that the LCD's connector is standard 20pin ribbon.
