LCD screen moddage Mk. 2 - 56k no!

If anyone recalls a while ago I bought an LCD screen and modded it into my PC case

Anyway I got bored with it as most of the time the door of my computer is closed meaning that I can't see it so today I ripped it out and stuck it into a piece of aluminium I dremmeled out.

Nope its just a standalone screen i bought from a competitor, £25 IIRC. Plugs in by parallel.

Looks very nice, what software are you using to control it?

Hamish · 16 Apr 2006 at 20:31

It's LCD Smartie

Heres another idea using the same LCD screen

The second one is using a winamp plugin to show the equaliser

Nice, what software are you using, and does it connect by USB?

sid · 17 Apr 2006 at 21:01

Using LCD smartie and it connects via parallel cable

Wheres the parallel, the only one i can think of is the place where old printers and alike are plugged in on *** back of the mobo? but my new mobo doesnt have one or am i thinking of a different place.

Rich1988 · 17 Apr 2006 at 22:11
