    I have a laptop LCD working with my PC (bought from Heofz). Its great for videos (cept sometimes it makes my sound scratchy, but I can sort that out later). Does anyone know a good way to mount it so I can put it on a wall (cheaply)? What tools will I need?

    Thanks.

    [Sorry if I sound noobish, but I havent modded anything before]

    *PHEW*

    I was going to kill you if you asked how to usa a laptop monitor as a 2nd monitor. we are so sick of that here!
    :search:

    anyway i really like the frame idea, it looks really good. also you could just flush mount it in and spackle/paint it, but that would have to be perfect to like the mm.

    Yeh Ive seen, but I have mine all nicely working in 24bit colour :D (shame the gfx cant do 32 :( ), even after a few problems with my soundcard hogging the PCI bandwidth :wallbash: .

    I think I might make a portable screen, or at least one which I can unhook from a support easily so I can move it away from my PC (a dell :jawdrop: ) which sounds like a small airplane. But not for a little while, so the chair and old trainer arrangement I have at the moment will have to do.
