jamaicaman Posted April 3, 2006 Report Share Posted April 3, 2006 Well, when my mom got a new computer, we put the old one in my room. The monitor is one of the old Windows '98 monitors, thick and white. Well, i was reading all these mods, and i was wondering, would it be possible to put some LED's in my Minitor in the back, so that the light wil shine out of the little cracks at the top?--j0e Quote Link to post Share on other sites

If that is the case, these 2 articles from TwistedMods.com should help you. Remember, there is the risk of shocking yourself badly on the insides of a monitor. Procede with caution. http://www.twistedmods.com/article.php?artid=192http://www.twistedmods.com/article.php?artid=213 Quote Link to post Share on other sites
xxkbxx Posted April 4, 2006 Report Share Posted April 4, 2006 Looks pretty dangerous for just some simple lights - I knew a guy who got shocked by 240 Volts - knocked him temporarily and left some nasty burns Quote Link to post Share on other sites
