Veritas 1 Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 I have a shuttle XPC SB62G. I want to know if any has any ideas or website resources on where i can go to find out how to put this in my car and hook up some sort of monitor to it. What I need to know: 1. How to power the PC ( i was thinking inverter, the XPC only draws 250watts max) 2. The easiest way to hook the pc to my car speakers. (the accord has a 6disc stock cd changer w/ casset, I already have a minijack to casset tape conveter which will work but I am looking for other solutions that are a litte more tidy) 3. Best way to display the computer ( I was looking at an indash popout lcd display but dont know if they support a monitor connection, my video card, radeon 9600 supports svideo out as well) 4. Best place to mount the XPC (thinking under passenger front seat, fits well) 5. Anything else I am missing. Thanks in advance for all the great knowledge you guys/girls will impart to me. Ohh yeah car is a: 2001 Honda Accord EX V6 3.0 Litter VTECH engine. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mopper Posted June 20, 2004 Share Posted June 20, 2004 im thinking about doing this too, havent really got into planning yet, but for the monitor part of it, i was thinking of using an lcd monitor with a pivot thing like an ipod has, you will probably need some extension cables for the display input, power inverters, probably go with wireless keyboard and mouse. using a touchscreen would be nice but more expensive. i would personally opt to install the xpc in the trunk, plus if u have an amp u can probably input sound into it from the pc. it would be hard to wire the monitor to it but its not impossible. im thinking about doin this, and since i work for vzw we get a good discount on wireless internet connection over the 1xrtt network, 40-60kbps, but im waiting for vzw to release evdo nationwide(at least here in az). that would mean broadband speed in your car.
