    Hi David

    Thanks very much for the link and the information. Very helpful. It really looks like the way to go. Mouser electronics may have those ribbon cables.

    Many thanks for taking the time to find that. I could see the manufacturers name on the cable - Axon, so I can now follow it up. The tutorial was excellent, worth a look Birdyguy

    Hi David,

    Definitely worth looking at, I agree. Going to do a lot of research on this one. Do you happen to know if all the Sony PSone models shipped with LCD screens?

    Re: PsOne screen - so easy and cheap, everybody should use it

    I know most of you are using it for FMCs and the likes, but how possible is it to use the screen as an additional display, and if so would it be VGA/DVI or even USB ???

    Thanks,

    James.

    Perhaps we need to keep a lid on this or the price of Psone's is going to go through the roof on Ebay. LOL

    It is easy to use the screen as an additional display, that is how we use them for the FMC. However, you need a graphics card with a composite video output, or an S-video output to which you need to connect an s-video to composite adapter - easily bought on Ebay

    Some people has successfully converted the psone to display to VGA, but this is not for the faint hearted and has had mixed results. Try a search on Google.

    Sorry, but I only discovered the Psone when I was looking for a FMC screen! I believe that there was another after market screen that was square, however, I understand that the genuine Psones were round. Perhaps other younger members can advise

    Re: PsOne screen - so easy and cheap, everybody should use it

    great to see that so many like this ;D

    the screen itself can be bought separately, search for "PSOne screen". the used ones are about 30-40$ it's perfect!

    the idea itself is old and I read about it on a couple of forums, however i didn't think it would be soooo easy, let me know if you have any question
