Solved! Reuse a laptop screen

[bwall99]

Is it feasible to physically remove and use the screen from a laptop as a second desktop monitor? The laptop is dead and can't even power on, but the screen should be ok.

I am happy dismantling electronic kit and soldering and so on.

Not really. You would likely spend more in parts (and definitely time) to get working than you would spend to just buy a second display.

Agree. The laptop display screen itself does not include a graphics engine to drive the display. That would require considerable expertise to implement.

OK thanks.
