project media mustang is finished

**kram** · 02-08-2004, 05:33 PM

well i finished my first project for the winter. just thought some of you might be interested to see this. It has a amd xp 2100 processor, 256 mg of ddr ram, 64 mb radion video card, a sound blaster audigy sound card, 16x dvd rom drive, and a 80gb harddrive. Right now i only have 1350 mp3s on it and 20 movies. it has gps navigation set up and also can run and control my diagnostic car software. Also have over 100 nintendo games that are run in a emulation software, but still need to hook up a controler. everything is run by the touchscreen moniter in the dash. here are a few pictures.

what do you think? still needs to be cleaned up a bit, and i still need to install the usb hub.

Very nice.

Where is your spare tire? Is there lexan over the computer? Is it insulated so it won't get wet? What kinda subs do you got and where? What kinda power supply are you using?

yes ther is a piece of 1/4 inch plexy glass on the top. it is not insulated but my truck dosent leak. the cumputer is elevated off of the floor of tire trunk. i have 2 kicker 10 facing the rear seats. and im running it with a 175 watt powersupply. oh and there is no spare tire in the car, hasent been in there for the last to years.

im not having any problems with noise. the inverter seems to be doing its job very well. i do have a problem with interferance in the display, but im pretty sure that is a refreh rate thing. im goin to mess with it a bit tomarrow.

yeah im in the same boat kram, im runnin an inverter and no probs atm... and besides if someone brings ps2 or xbox to play, or a small fridge for BEER, we can always plug it into the inverter... hehe
