Wow, 12 ms is really good right?

Would they actually say it supports that high of a font side bus or would it only claim 800?

I'm willing to buy a motherboard and the 630 chip to do this, but unsure of whether it's possbile. Anyone know the motherboard type/model in this dell (8400)?

Is this only limited to Dell's?

sweet!

Well, I took a voltmeter to the LCD and Inverter ports and am currently trying to figure out how to match them up with an LCD I have. Only potential problem is that the motherboard expects an XGA LCD and mine is UXGA. UXGA is of course better, but does anyone know if I"ll have a problem making...

Hmmm. I'll give it a try this weekend if I get the chance....

Good question, but I've never tried that before. I would think it should be possible. I thought the beep usually went through the PC speaker, etc, and not the audio out, but I could be wrong...

Yeah, I'll keep you posted, but you can just strap an old pentium 1 or 3 heatsink to it with thermal paste and zip tie that bad boy tight. :)

Well, I finally got through after a couple attempts with Chaintech's USA support and was referenced to a technician internally. He's never heard of this board, but seems willing to help me. He asked me to take a picture of the board and the LCD items on it and he'd forward it to Headquarters to...

Anyone know how to get the pinouts for the LCD/Controller ports? Can a voltage meter be used? Or some other tools?

Sorry wish I could. This is the LCD from my laptop that died, which I'm trying to reuse parts from for this motherboard. I was just happy I found the specs for the LCD from my dead laptop, as it took a little "hacking" and manipulation of the URLs for the manuals. ;) On that same note, I've...

Dude, I just installed the newest version of Powerstrip and there's lots of information, etc. I cannot find the advanced Timing section or anything on the composite, perhaps you can tell me where to look in the app?

Will do as soon as I get windows running on it. Just a minute....

Holy cow. I got FULL specs for my LCD after ALOT of searching. It's an IDTech lcd from a Clevo/Sager/Prostar/Alienware laptop UXGA and have FULL pinouts, etc. All I need are some kind of poinouts for this motherboard and I should be in business... Can anyone lend a hand?

SOme of the links for the IMO Desk which this motherboard most likely came from, are for what seems to be a newer version of the board we are using... Not all the ports/features are exactly the same, so this leads me to believe that we bought a motherboard from a "prototype" before the current...

Anyone have the sound loaded for Linux?

Yeah, I tried to boot with no LCD and just connect the Inverter which seemed to fit, and got teh ole' snap, krackel, pop and smokey smell from the board. Unplugged the power and now it seems to still boot but man, something bad happened and I doubt I will get an LCD to work now. I would like to...

Wow, I've read this thread quite a few times in it's entirety and I figured there'd be more success stories than what's here. I just got my board a couple days ago from a member in these forums, you know who you are (starts with a w and ends in a 7) ;) and i'm very impressed already. I am...

Anyone get an LCD from a laptop connected to this? I'm gonna try it tomorrow at work. Skeptical but it's worth trying. Also, the miniPCI slot might serve a purpose for the person wanting PCMCIA functionality. Anyone know exactly which laptop/PC this is from?

Anyone know from experience whether this works with linux and LIRC?
