first off its "solder", and use this guide: http://www.engadget.com/2006/11/14/how- ... -cable-fo/" onclick="window.open(this.href);return false; but instead of connecting it to the cable, connect to the screen.
every one of my trade offers comes with respect. just take that into consideration with my most likely appealing offer. :D

one day... my xbox 360 portable WILL HAPPEN!!

I am very familiar with that post but the problem with that is I have to sacrifice a Vid Cable and I dont want to do that I want to wire it straight to the mobo, If you look in the picture their vid cable is acually in and connected to an external tv. And that way making it still able to run through a tv. If you know a link to the mobo pinouts that would be great b/c my searching is holding up no answers. Oh and yeah I get solder and sauder mixed up a lot my bad.

that link shows you the pinout of the connector, so you can easily work out which on the motherboard it is.

and you will come unstuck when you want to play on a tv, you will need to create a switch. (unless the HDMI port takes priority? Haven't used a HDMI 360 yet)

before I get to doing that is there a certain voltage given out by each pin that I could possibly test for? or is it all the same?
