sounds like not enough current. try a hacked atx psu for power, just search, and you can find all sorts of stuff about how to do it.

500 mA? That is only 0.5A. I don't think there is enought juice for the PSU to turn on itself left alone powering anything else.

RoadRunner is the best FE PERIOD
EmoRebellion is a SCAMMER
so how much current do i need
If I remember correctly pico PSU is good for 120 watts. In a 12v environment that is 10 amps. The only cheap way I can think of to provide that kind of amp on a 12v rail is by usung a hacked ATX power supply.

Right.... but with full load a 100% effectivity ( in this case it will be more then 11 A)Originally Posted by Zebelkhan
It depends on your CarPc setup - ussually about 5 - 6 A for starting windows on EPIA boardOriginally Posted by ampy549
