[QUOTE="spoonraker, post: 3280047, member: 570956"] I have a kill switch mounted up front already mega, but for some reason it doesn't work when the car does this. The switch is on the remote wire, so I can safely turn on/off the computer using the PSU's built in DSSC. If everything is normal it works fine, flipping the switch acts just like turning the key on/off only I can restart the computer while the car is still running. For some reason when my car does this weird electrical thing, the computer remains "on" in the sense that it stays on (fans spin on motherboard and case), but the windows instantly shuts off, screen goes blank, and the computer stop responding to the remote wire. I have to manually unplug either the motherboard or the power supply with the car off, and then turn them both on at the same time to fix it...it's really weird. The computer was working flawlessly until the starting problems showed up and absolutely nothing was changed so I know it's not my wiring or the PSU or anything. [/QUOTE]
