so i'm stuck with a non-functioning PSOne screen...

If you're making a portable you probably need something to watch it on. (Unless you want to guess what's happening in the game, but I wouldn't advise that) Anyway, this forum is your "Hacking a pocket TV/screen" one-stop solution. Share your experiences and knowledge here.

What exactly is wrong with it?

By the way, this should be in the screen hacking forum...

With a bit of modding you should be able to use any 5 in. (4:3 aspect ratio) light box, but don't quote me on this...

PCB means Printed Circuit Board, not PC Board (although it isn't much different. The other kind of Circuit Board is Through Hole, where the components are soldered through holes in the board as opposed to surface mounted (or "printed") components.

The main reason I'm posting here, though, is to ask if someone could mail me a speaker for a PSOne screen. I lost one. I'll pay and such for shipping or whatever. PM me.
Hey, sup?
