Wiring diagram for a flip down LCD monitor?

How to use an used laptop display as a flat monitor on a Desktop PC?

  • I´ve got a unusable Compaq Presario Laptop. Motherboard just doesn´t work anymore. I want to rescue its 14" LCD monitor by adapting it to a VGA connector and a external DC power supply. The cuestion is... I don´t know exactly how to. It would be great if someone has the wiring diagram or any information... Greater if somebody gives me instructions. The laptop has a Trident video adaptor, don´t remember the specific model. For details I can check my laptop. Thanks

  • Answer:

    Trident? are they still making video cards? I haven't seen one in....10-12 years I'd guess. Regardless, you would need to consult HP/Compaq for wiring diagram, though I doubt they still have it.....but you don't know 'till you ask. I seriously doubt that you will make this work unless you know how to solder....and well.
