An AIO PC is nice, until the PC gets old and there is a monitor that can't be used. In this video I convert a old AIO with a decent 1080p panel to a desktop monitor for $25 using an adapter board from ebay. I go over the process I went over to convert the AIO to a monitor and what I looked out for during this process.

Great video! With Windows 10 becoming obsolete and my HP 23" all-in-one not being compatible with windows 11, I was debating throwing it away or trying to upgrade the cpu or motherboard to make it compatible (which is impossible). This gives me another option. I plan on converting it to a monitor and then just hanging a windows 11 mini-pc off the back so I can continue to use it. Fraction of the price of a new all-in-one. Thanks!

Found a tossed out Dell Wyse AIO 5470, with Thin OS/ Client. I have no experience with Thin OS, but it does have a 1080p screen! What size is the screen that you removed from your AIO? Think the screen size of the 5470 is a 24". Have you tried - carefully!! - to slightly bend or curve a screen? Does the driver board also have a built on amplifier for sounds? Hmm.. kif you had the extra $$ for this cool project, could you have bought a better driver board? Thank you 🤓

I wanna say those systems can have any OS installed on them, but there gonna be pretty slow for many uses. I think the system I opened is a 24in panel, but there is a good chance yours is different, so you'll probably want to check for your self. I don't see a built in amp on the board, but I think it has a headphone out jack from the HDMI/DP audio. I didn't see any higher end board, but I typically aim for cheaper converter boards with projects like this as I see the whole point of this is to be cheaper than a pre-made monitor.

@@ElectronicsWizardry the Dell Wyse 5470 AIO is a recent find, but not sure what to do with it! I also thought of installing Chrome "OS", but would still need a higher capacity SSD. Think it has a 1.5Ghz or so CPU, but I believe it's a Quad core

When you're using an aio as a monitor for another PC, what happens to the ports on the all-in-one whilst using it as a monitor. Are they unusable or are they detected and available to the PC?

unusable

How do i turn an AIO into a normal pc

@ElectronicsWizardry 7 ай бұрын

This really depends on the exact all in one, but it’s typically not easy as non standard boards are used. It’s likely possible to plug the board into a monitor, keyboard, network and other devices to the ports on the board. The biggest issue would likely be buttons like the power button and the power input.
