You can only use the screen on other laptops. You can take any lcd and put it in pretty much any laptop you want, they just use different lcd cables.

I had a bit of a strange request. My 4.5 year old dell just gave out on me and I stripped it for parts. One of the parts I took out was...the screen. I'd like to use in some way, either set it up as an external monitor to be used with a basic VGA connector or use it in some other microcontroller project (maybe program a graphics card or something fun.)

My problem is I have no idea how to interface with the device, let alone connect it. The connector itself is female and attaches to the motherboard. The motherboard houses a rectangular island inside an outer casing. I has approx 20-30 contacts I think. I'll take a pic and attach to this thread.

The screen connector has a movable bar for plugging and unplugging with a label attached:
"DCW 12 15 XGA
DC025062800
HANNSTAR 04/08/20
UC00352 REV:1:0"

Googling those terms doesn't come up with a lot. Does anyone have any ideas on how to proceed?
