QUOTE(LJS @ Sep 12 2005, 02:18 PM) jeremy0 now u have ur car-puter?Do u think got other place to place the mainboard?Now i have no idea where to put the mainboard.Seem like Hilux lack of space. i just sold off mine already...going to get another model later (Xenarc CP-1000 hopefully) together with a touchscreen lcd..i plan to fit everything under the passenger seat/glove compartment... ljs..if ur using a/v, the res could be quite problematic...thought of this method previously but the quality of output is not satisfactory...better get a proper one with vga input...i got a 10m long vga cable alraeedy (custom) so thats not a problem if i mount the lcd in front and cpu under the seat. Coconut..im going to phuket tomorrow...see u there.hahaha...wanna drink lotsa pineapple juice and admire their vigo...there's this 3 litre vigo for rent at THB1500 per day...wonder if its worth renting

i got my intel celeron today wif foxconn mainboard,512 RAM,Ati 9250 GC, WD 80G HDD,DVD ROM. I'm to put main board,HDD,DVD ROM under seat then PSU put at left side of the aircon blower there,actually i wan put DVD ROM inside the centre console box but i dunwan potong the hole,it is still new car,i sayang to drill hole.Intel Celeron idle temp is 39C,is quite high also bcos it is using stock HSF.I'm waiting my monitor from hometown,it is remove from my dad car,it should be a AV input not VGA,that y i buy the cheapest and smallest GC that got PS@ head that can convert to AV output.Once i get my monitor i will post up the pic.Now my problem is how to connect my carputer speaker to my car speaker,i ask one accessories shop ppl,they say can use hi -to -lo converter to make the speaker output from stock HU to RCA ouput so i can use both HU and carputer in car speaker,just use pre-amp that got 2 input.Now wat i can do is use cheap speaker or earphone to listen buit no display.

very sad to day.A lots of thing happen to me today.First,then mainboard burn after i install all thing under the seat.So i go the shop then just exchange.then i fix it in again,then i feel like very scary when i put in the mainboard again,then i think for a while,if the mainboard or power supply burn up or short circuit with the carpet then my Hilux gone liaolo.I scare this bcos i just put the mainboard without putting isolator under the mainboard.My system dun hav casing also.By then the PSU is so hot and there is not much air flow under the seat.So i remove all of it liao.Waste my time fixing it,next week got examinaton,i still no study at all,and still thinking for CAR-PUTER,Haih.I had spended about RM1K for the system and ends up with nothing.I hope after my exam,when holiday can do casing for it and put anywhere else.
I got see one mainboard with VIA chipset,it comes wif VIA processor,it is really small in size about 5x8 inch,cost only 2xx.If my monitor is VGA input,i sure buy that one.It dun hav AGP slot ler.But it's processor cool by small fan only.Very tiny mainboard,it is for basic user only.

i got the pic of the smallest VIA mainboard,with built-in processor. then my Intel Celeron system but i remove all the thing already bcos i scare short-circuit and cause to fire.Very sad,buy then install then remove.I think i will install it again once i get the casing,of course the casing is no longer put under seat,may be put around the rear seat.

hi guys...there are so damn many vigos in thailand...and they have intercoolers some more......the fortuners are also nice..., found one shop selling vigo front bull bar but the price is around 50000 bht...abit on the high side but design quite nice....
i didn't manage to test out their hilux 3.0 coz petrol is freaking expensive...i ended up with a honda jazz dsl which could run quite far with just 7 litres of petrol....petrol price is on average 26.7 bht per litre! Some more price varies between stations

Today really disapppoint me,the monitor cannot display clearly bcos it is AV input,so the output of the GC is not good in quality also. Then my 220v inverter is really hot when operating (about 70C,can burn ur hand),the PSU also very hot,i just on for not more than 30 minutes.So,may be my system will no longer at car liao,may be convert to destop.Will try VIA built-in processor mainbaord with touch screen monitor. Jeremy0,i think u know where to get touch screen monitor ,rite?How much is that?
