<DIV><FONT size=2 face=Arial>This is as close as I got to solving the problem.
Using a 50.00 photo player with composite and/or SVHS " in " would
do fine. Sometimes you can find those car DVD players with two monitors cheap
too. The second monitor is ready to go, and the first can be used with a bit
of jigging around as well. Total about 75.00 a screen. But only one
screen per computer unfortunately. If your only looking to make two glass
instrument panels that shouldn't be a problem. (only two
computers)</FONT></DIV>

just that easy, but going on to all those trouble, it might come out more

<DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">Good luck with that. They are all so
different. Then add ribbon cables to the equation. What do you mean by
broken? The cases? Or are they fried somehow electronically.</DIV>
<DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial"> </DIV>
<DIV style="FONT: 10pt arial">Most of those things are composite (RCA)
or perhaps S-Video. Some of them even have mini 1/8" phone plugs
for video in. Depending on what they are, you can either get a TV card
(all in wonder etc), but I don't know how you'd interface that with
X-Plane or FS. Alternative is to search for the pin-outs and try to wire
them up the way you like. But if the monitor won't turn on, you
have bigger issues to deal with. Stripping the screen out to operate
stand-alone is paramount to asking a car to go down the road 60 miles an
hour without an engine. The "screen" being the "car". There is an
inverter, and a PSU and backlighting and everything else in an LCD
monitor. If none of those things work, that is why they are cheap.
Because they aren't useful for anything except spare parts. </DIV>

separate the screen and wire it from there? i would like to use them to
