I think they want you to read the faq.. *Shrug*

It's a bit more complicated than that. You really need to read the FAQ because it will detail every step necessary. To do so in a thread would take up quite a lot of time and space.
Read the FAQ, see the directions and print them out. There's also a lot of people who documented how to do this on the web. A search on Google will give you the links you need.

Big ass hugely informative thread on ps1 lcd modding


and if you dig deeper on that forum youll find info on how to power the lcd from your pc's psu.. but its NOT cut and dry you need a dedicated circuit
