Default NEWBIE QUESTION???

I have seen pci cards that can send vga signal to LCD directly
The capacity of these cards are low resolution(2megs pci), but coupled with a dvd card would it be a good alternative to 200$ controller?
Thanks for your help!!

nec controller

Any info about its original purpose would help.

Cool probably no good for a PJ but.....

Good site with some interesting info. As mentioned ...probably/for sure no good for a PJ but for other uses looks like a winner.

Default NordicNINE

For the cost involved I'd say buy one,( if you are carefull) the worst is it won't work for what you want..and you have a tiny little monitor thats looking for something to do.....Ebay...

What monitors have people taken apart?

Office Depot has a 15" SVA LCD for $197 after $30 rebate and I can order a Samsung 150N for a little more.

I'll probably get the Samsung if I knew it could be taken apart succesfully.

From what I'v read hear the NEC1545v and the I-O DATA A15V.

It sound's like the I-O DATA is easyer or a little safer to take apart...

Default no monitors were harmed in the making of this.....

I use lap top LCD's so don't keep up on current monitor stats.

Default NEC 1555V is not usable (for me)

Hello all,

I just finished disassembling a NEC LCD1555VBK. I think the panel bears a HannStar logo and the boards attached to the LCD are conected via a tiny ribbon cable. I will post pictures if anyone is interested.
