turning an LCD screen into a screen for computer Anonymous 2016-01-11 14:27:54 Post No. 928501 [Report]

Hey /diy/!

I have this LCD screen at home (pic related) that I wanna connect to my PC as a second monitor.
The model is HannStar HSD070I651, I have no panel for it, nothing. Just the plain screen, that orange connector (26 pins), and a power cord (2 pins).
I found this spec but I've no idea what to do with it.

Where can I get a controller for it, to connect it to my PC? tried googling but didn't get much out of it.

This appears to be what you are looking for, although that resolution would be pretty bad for a secondary display. 480x234

Meh, you could make a side screen showing system parameters like temps and voltages, twitter feeds, or other real time info you might like to display. I can't find it but some dude built a 5" CRT into the front of his case for just this reason. He did need to code up a solution to retrieve and pipe that data out, but it's not outside the realms of possibility.

csmqshop may not be the cheapest, but they will tell you exactly what driver board you need. I have used them personally with fine results.
