I started the montitor mod

Pics will be updated here


Nice work sizerkozak. I take it you are still working on this but I am curious why you can't leave the monitor with no frame/bezel like the below screen...:




Is it a safety or power related thing???

Thanks!

:-)

Oops, I forgot to add this. . . .

But I soon I hope to change it to:

"I have experience of the TH2G and I never really thought of the bars/gaps as a problem."

Now that TFT panels are <£100 each, I might be tempted in the future... :D

The screen actually does not display properly without the metal bezels installed...it keeps preasure on the layers of plastic and the light bar that runs along the outside edge...

There is an update to the mod in this post here

so after using paddy's system to play a few games I have to say that the black bars aren't an issue. I wish people could see it in action with thier own eyes.

I don't have experience of a TH2G but I think they would be an annoyance in Windows but when engrosed in games they probebly wouldn't be really noticable ...

hm that sucks! :?
maybe you can patch the poll:

i would vote:
I have experience of the TH2G and I never really though of the bars/gaps as a problem ...

the second choice, (I have gotten used to them and now they are not a problem ... I don't really notice them any more ...) isnt appropriate because i got used to the bars right after the first start of my system... :wink:

I've never considered them an annoyance, except when gaming a little.

Desktop use is fine.

Now that the digital edition is out though, I'd get it just to rid myself of the alignment issues in gaming, and tto have expandability in the future to go to DVI monitors.
