laptop screen to vga help

[Superchan 23]

hello, i have an old laptop that i took apart (dell latitude 433cx) and i want to take the screen and make it so i can plug it into a vga connection, i took it a part and found out it is a sharp model # lq9d021, i need to get some pinouts on how to connect the screen to a vga monitor.

I thought that if you took apart a laptop, I was damaged forever.....

Anyway, sorry, I have not a clue how to do that.

well i have powered it up disassembled, but its an old laptop, i also need to know what the 2 screen power connectors need to be, how many volts, and how many amps, this project will allow me to multi task and play sc4 and be on the internet easier without spending money on an lcd or bringing a space consuming crt into my room, i would hook it up to one of my older computers.

You might find the info you are looking for here, eServiceInfo.com "Service manuals, schematics, documentation, programs, electronics, hobby ....Schematics 4 Free"

I tried a search of dell latitude 433xx and it came back with about 50 hits.

It looks like files are in RAR format, there is a wiki page here that is more help with them than I am, or someone here on the forum may have help with them if you need it.

 

Good Luck and have a good weekend.
