Sorry but this is not possible, basicly without the board it is just a plain lcd screen.


The GBA had an attachment that allowed you to watch tv, but the resoultion was pore and tv shows use 25 frames per second,
Correct me if I am wrong.

Also your computer can only do a 640x480 and the size of the GBA lcd is not able todo a 640x480 if it was even possible to make it a computer screen.

Anyway it will not work
sorry.

I think he would like to use it as LCD diplaying system info, such as temperature and FAN speeds, not as main LCD screen...

Yes,that's right.I WOULD like to use it as LCD displaying system info,not as LCD screen.

OK, first send us the picture of the LCD (showing it's PINs) and some model numbers written on it.

I would suspect it's just a plain glass LCD screen, no driver chips or anything - NOT a trivial thing to try and interface if it is!.

If it's like that, then it's useless to us... That's why I want to see a picture of it :D
