[QUOTE="spoonraker, post: 3366161, member: 570956"] Well I tried a few things and I think the problem is unavoidable. I took my laptout out to the car and plugged the RCAs into it, car on, laptop off = no noise. Laptop on = no noise. So that means the noise is simply coming from the CarPC. Once the sound card turns on the noise goes completely away, so I think this problem is unavoidable, I just need to delay the amp turn on, or put a switch on them. Now in addition to that noise, I seem to be getting interference in the touchscreen monitor in the dash. Again, hooking up to the laptop made the problem go away with the car on or off. I think my CarPC is just a rather noisy shaken to death piece of equipment from sitting 2 feet away from my Fi Q. I'm going to move it all the way into the corner of the trunk and mount it differently with a new fiberglass case and some shock resistant mounts whenever I finish my door panels and hopefully that improves things.
