I am going to try the ground method from PSU to VGA but I thnk I nailed it with the power from the PSU.
Now I need to relay the power as well since I sometimes leave the computer running when the car is off. I have a 1 hour timer on my power controller if I dont turn the pc off myself. I like it better this way..... phc thanks for your help, I own you a beer!
Glad I could help, but you actually confirmed my theory. I'm having a bit of the same issue myself ever since I put an 80W opus in my dash to power all the USB devices (DVD/CDRW takes 2 amps at 5V) as well as the LCD.
I'm just about to rip into my dash again to see if I can fix it.
