    cold weather problems?

    Does anyone have any problems with cold weather effecting your car-puter, monitors or anything else on your carputers?

    I do. I use a desktop hard drive in my car, and some mornings it just does not want to spin up. What I've done to circumvent that is load my OS on a CF card, and use a USB drive for all my music and what not.

    when it's -20 C, my carnetix does not power up( bt design), after car heats up, about 15m, it automatically turns on. xenarc 700tsv isn't too bright in the cold either...
