So a little bit of background first. My new ride is a pretty sick 2000 Grand Caravan. Hell yes, I look like a creeper. Regardless, I've had a headunit I've been looking at hooking up to it in place of the stock PoS. The speakers are already decent for how much I'm going to be driving it...

WOW...mdf?! Hah, I guess that works out pretty well for ya? But ya, abotu the ventilation issue, my problem isn't about things being too cold. QUITE the opposite. I live where typical summer days are 90-100+, and being inside a small black car probably won't help things out, NOT to mention...

hm.. ok, I'll def invest in a bigger hdd. Are there any specs I should specifically go for? For example, I know a bit about hdd, but should I invest in laptop hdds or 2.5" hdd vs 3.5" hdd? And if that's the case, will a 3.5" hdd fit in most microATX enclosures? And lastly, should I just toss...

wow. Thanks for all the direct advice everyone! Ya, I'm starting to look back at those forums supplied and a few others and have noticed some big mistakes I was wanting to go for. As far as what I'm planning out now, I have a few pieces laying around the place that can assemble a good half of...

Thx for the info. I know what you mean about Vista. I'm still not sure I'll run it or not, but I just love the layout of it. I know it's easier to get skins and apply those, but I guess I'll just see what I can build with what parts I have at my house. As far as the carputer itself is...

ook, thanks. I'll take a look at those forums. I've done a bit of searching around, just have had no luck on the screen problem yet.

I was thinking of building a cheap, low end computer that's basically, just capable of using Vista, and putting it in my car for media. I was going to just stick w/ all Vista's required specs, and then invest in a higher-end sound card to put it in, then buy a small touch screen monitor (like...

I was afraid that might've been the case :x Is there any other solution though, because I just recently bought the amp and it sounds like quite a bit of work having to sell it then get another. I can try seeing if they'll accept it back, but no promises yet. I'd just prefer another way if at...

Ok, so I have a new system setup in my truck. I have 2 Hifonics 15" woofers in the back powered by a Kicker x15000.1 through series. ATM, I'm not really expecting great success out of it, because my truck's up for sell, but I really just wanted to build a box ASAP for it that was large enough...
