right
someone in the other threads said that....also (in other threads) it was said that some ppl have the gps device under the car body/shell (this guy had a corvette with a plastic body)....so i used the car paint from pep boys...looks nice so happy, works
++++++
well.AH! i have read up & down this thing and the more i read the more i feel like a noob...hmmmm..lol well i have a problem figuring out if all i need is an OPUS...I have a DC 62.40 Watt power supply in the computer...and more details of the computer are in the link in the first thread...
Oh i think i am confusing myself! TIME TO ASK NOOB QUESTIONS..but once i learn..i can help others and not be a noob

Ok lets organize:
1. i am using 12gauge wires...and i dont think its a good idea to use such high gauge, since when i turn the car on, the computer will not power for the first 2-3 minutes..its like it doesnt have enough power..works fine when the key is turned once though-engine off. I checked the voltage after crank...above 10V. Will an OPUS save me or will a dc-dc regulator-inverter do it (the carputer needs 12v and 4A)...regulator or opus? i donno

2. does not survive the crank! obviously........will opus 90W help me survive the crank...and will it benefit with lower gauge wires? will i need a tank? opus seems to replace what i have in the box (i will take a pic and post it up tomorrow)

3. i dont know what doides do? or relay (i dont need them...but good to know) my father was a physics proffesor...but i havent seen him in 8 years...wish i could ask him

4. is it a good idea to wire the (+) to the 0 gauge wire running to the 1000W amp?

5. any programs out there that can help me make my windows resolution widescreen...i have not been able to figure out how to change the resolution in the computer i got to be widescreen...could not find helpful post either myVIA EPIA-M10000 has only standard resolutions in the adapter res list. I heard somehting about OLD BIOS...more on this tomorrow

THANK YOU SO MUCH AND I AM SORRY FOR BEING SO GOOD TO ME MP3CAR.com members. I know i am an *** for getting a ready box...well almost ready, but I thought of this on 4/20/2004... and since then it has been crazy studyign for finals...soi knew i would have no time to make my own system Thank you...thank you thank you again
