Sorry to break this to you but, you can't use that screen. It takes a digital input, and good luck with the portable :wink: .

next time, search around a bit for some info.....(you know, I'm gonna put a general FAQ up for the systems I know/general info....me and the other mini-mods should come up with one.....)

anyway, a laptop screen won't work, and they use up too much power anyway...for an XBOXp (which will be incredibly hard to do....even I don't dare attempt it, though with enough resources/time it could be done ;)) power is definitely an issue ;)

try using a psone screen or searching around ebay for a screen with composite or s-video or RGB input....psone screens (5 inches) are usually pretty good, though :)....I'm locking this now, but if you have questions that I haven't already answered, just PM me :).
Without games my life would have no meaning.
Well, I guess it would, but it would be a lot less fun!!!!!!!
