Where to find a small vga monitor.

Do you have a technical question that doesn't really fit a specific console? Want some general info on electronics, hacking, making cookies, etc? Here's the place to ask! Go nuts.

Where to find a small vga monitor.

Post by Mikeyman64 »

Does anyone here know where a good source for a small (10-12" or so) lcd vga monitor? When I say good I mean reasonably cheap. I just wanted to get one for stuff like if I'm playing a game and I'm stuck, I can just leave the game up and load up gamefaqs on the other monitor, so I'm not worried about quality or even good resolution either.

I've tried a bit of googling, but I haven't been able to find much.

Why don't you get a PSOne screen and perform a VGA mod on it, and hook it up to the computer? There's a lot of instructions out there (screen forum stickies) for it. That way, you'll have a small, single-use screen.

I do have an old GCN screen that I'm not using. I'll have to try and figure out the vga mod for it.

Ah... no. 15" crts are monsters (used to have a compaq, talk about big). No way one of them is going to fit on my desk!

Yeah, I want small and sleek and non obvious. All of which a crt is not.
