[QUOTE="spoonraker, post: 3279831, member: 570956"] Mine's a pain in the *** right now, but it's not the PC's fault. My car is having problems starting, I think it's something with a solenoid. Almost every time I go to start the car it will click a few times before actually engaging the starter. Sometimes just once and it's done, sometimes a few times, sometimes it just won't stop clicking and I have to let it sit for a few minutes and try again. Anyway... every time this happens every electronic device in the car gets reset. The trip odometer resets to 0, all the lights go off, and if my computer was already started (which I do 99% of the time) it will turn off, but regain power so quickly that it doesn't actually reboot the PC. So the fans still spin but I have to actually pop the trunk and pull the ATX plug on the motherboard to get it to shut off manually then start the car again. [/QUOTE]
