Some users have recently had their accounts hijacked. It seems that the now defunct EVGA forums might have compromised your password there and seems many are using the same PW here. We would suggest you UPDATE YOUR PASSWORD and TURN ON 2FA for your account here to further secure it. None of the compromised accounts had 2FA turned on.
Once you have enabled 2FA, your account will be updated soon to show a badge, letting other members know that you use 2FA to protect your account. This should be beneficial for everyone that uses FSFT.

Same here
Malor- I just used double sided sticky tape around the edges of the bezel to mount it. It's a tight fit but it doesnt make contact with the case. It took me about 4 hours all told to get it in and functional, and about another 4 hours of forums surfing to figure out what was wrong with my Powerstrip setup. All the guides out there are lacking in one or two details and they are hard to sift through IMO. I got the LCD on Ebay for 40 bucks and spent another 60 on another PCI card to drive it (I already use dual monitors on my main card.)
If you give it a shot I'd be glad to help out if you get stuck.

Pwnisher : How did you get it to display that i am confused... like did you run a second vga card from your computer and tell it to display only that on the lcd? cuz i wanted to do something like that but have a video clip that would loop.. but i have no idea on how to do it... ? 
run tvout from your vid card in through the back of your case to the lcd. This way it is treated as a second desktop and if you use powerstrip or something you can put whatever you want on the screen.GnG said:Pwnisher : How did you get it to display that i am confused... like did you run a second vga card from your computer and tell it to display only that on the lcd? cuz i wanted to do something like that but have a video clip that would loop.. but i have no idea on how to do it... ?
GnG- It is a 3rd monitor, the display is powered by an ac adapter, and fed by a RAdeon 9200 PCI card. Using Ultramon you can control different wallpapers on each desktop, screensavers etc. With it you could do just as you want- make a video clip, flash animation etc. and have it run on that monitor. It's all VGA, not tv-out, the picture quality is way better with the VGA mod.

I'll post some pictures later and try to show it off a little.

I was messing around with my camera's movie mode and took a short 1:40 clip of the screen in action and converted it to a .wmv file with the WinXP movie maker tool. The lighting was as best as I could get it and the quality of the picture does not do the scree justice, but you can see it in action. It's on my ISP webspace and hopefully they won't kill my account for hosting it, we'll see how many people DL it.
Do a right click on the link and "Save As" and hopefully it will work.
LCD Movie
I'm going to try and take some better pictures of it now as well.
Perhaps I can do a write up of some kind, I didn't take pictures while I was going at it, but I could improvise a bit and come up with something useful I think.
