I've been wanting to make a PS2 Laptop for ages, but I have a couple of problems..
1: I have never modded a console before, are there any pre-requirements/is experience needed to do this?
2: What are the sizes of the innards of a PS2
and..
3: Would I be able to use an old laptop's (alright, its not too old) screen and speakers easily to create a PS2 laptop?

1. If you are talking modchip then you need to be able to solder "TINY" traces. The PS2 is not a super easy system to put a modchip in.
2. 8.1"x5.5"
3. No

but one more question, is it even possible to use a laptop screen for a PS2 Laptop?
and by "mod" i just mean making it into a laptop
Thanks
If you're talking about the actual laptop lcd screen? Well yes it's "possible" to use it as the main screen for a PS2 laptop. But you would have to buy a controller from China and it would cost around $200-$300 for it unless they already make one for it. Used to be you could get one off Ebay, just email the seller your Lcd panel #'s and in 3-4 weeks he would send you a controler for it that had vga and rca inputs. But he no longer does it. So now it is incredibly hard to get it done.

Yeah, I wasn't sure how to put it into a certain section, so it did it automatically..
thanks railrazer, I'm just gonna buy an LCD 15" instead, costs the same as the screen converter would, so.. yeah
hey hailrazer,
cos ur online - should i use an old laptop case and take out the screen and CPU or should i create my own case?
also, should i use a PS2 slim or PS2 phat, cos I want the CD to slide out from the case, unlike the PS2 slim that just opens the top..
thanks
