    Thanks that diagram helps visualise things. I have ordered the bits n bobs so they should be here Tuesday.

    Also ordered my 15way D-Sub connector to connect the screen via VGA, so fingers crossed the screen may even be up and running in a couple of days.

    No doubt I will end up having a few more questions before it works properly but I will update my worklog with the results of what shall be called "The xmastree transistor-ma-jiggy" so you can see how I got on

    Well, good luck. And don't connect the screen until you're absolutely sure you got the supply working correctly.

    You do have a multimeter, don't you?

    Thanks, I will be sure to test it a few times first.

    Thankfully yes, have been looking for an excuse to use it for a while.

    @ xmastree - Have put the circuit together, after some testing it looks to be working a treat. You can see it Here be good to hear your opinion.

    Cheers
