Thread: plan for carputer, does this sound like it should work?

i have a p3 450 mhz, 128 megs of ram. going to upgrade to xp, and i plan on running it off of this inverter

Im going to wire the inverter directly to the battery and have a switch to control it. I will be running only frodoplayer for mp3s and dvds, with a liliput touchscreen.

should this run okay? im trying to spend the minimal amount of money here, since i just want mp3s and dvds, and my deck already plays mp3s.

oh one more question. Is it hard to set up the touchscreen to interact with the PC? or does frodoplayer automatically set it up?

thanks in advace.


would this inverter be any better? http://www.amazon.com/exec/obidos/AS...193815-6068944

it putts out 150 as opposed to the other one that puts out 300. 300 seems like a little bit much
