i have a old pentium 300 with 32 of ram in my car now,, it works fine with 145 W AC-DC PSU.... so i think the inverter is working fine... but it's the new mobo that's not working in the car

well acctually not tested in my car, but with the same PSU in my bedroom... and will not boot... it boots fine with a 250 W... but why does i need so much power?
is there somthing wrong whit the mobo? shall i turn off USB, FIREwire etc.. in the bios
