[MartyFaeScotland]

@razoralex123 you have to built it m8, or buy an ipad type computer and built that into the dash.. :)

[okie294life]

Could you imagine if someone is doing all that shit while they are driving? A lot will, no doubt.

[MrGNetworks]

HA!! centrafuse pmsl!! im using ride runner with pocco 1.5.1 the oly reason people have centrafuse is because the cant use or configure ride runner i got 1.6ghz atom 330 processor, 2GB DDR2 800mhz dual channel ram, Nvidia ION graphics, 60GB PS3 HDD, CD-RW/DVD-ROM Custom built touchscreen that has been modified just like the car pc case! GOOD LUCK to all of you coz it isnt easy building one of these to NOT look like a car amplifier and finding the software is as hard!! gd luck ppl!!

[Darfen1]

Hi Marty, what touch screen do you use? Ford have an atypical 1.8 DIN extent of radio box. I do not know what i can use for my car...please help

[MrGNetworks]

@Darfen1 i wud go for a 7 inch touchscreen and manufacture a oem bezel to give it the stock look that is pleasing to the eye!

[Darfen1]

Thanks for answer! so can you say me, where i can buy it? This screen looks seriously nice. :-)

[anthonytheperson]

What is the name of the software it is running?

[MartyFaeScotland]

its called "Centrafuse"

although this was changed to "RoadRunner"

just google each you'll see...

[anthonytheperson]

thanks!

[HiJackZX1]

LOL.... No, Centrafuse is still Centrafuse. Infact they are at Centrafuse 3.0. Road Runner, which is a different software, is now called Ride Runner.

[mannsburg]

[MartyFaeScotland]

The Tune is at the top of the software on screen..

Congrats on getting your CarPC to this stage (or should I say your brother :) ). It looks like he's chosen to use Centrafuse as his front end. We're happy to see that! If anyone else is interested in learning more about Centrafuse, just Google 'Centrafuse'!

[poltergeistluxx]

lol :)

[hohahohi]

Finally Ford got cool.

[lockethemaster]

I cant afford a new car but i will be able to TOTALLY modify my old 1.4 focus... PLEASE help me out... LOL

[1337Junel1337]

Nice Setup :D

[daleyd]

hi mate i have a plan of runnin a 7" touch screen off a laptop in the second screen scocket will the touch screen work like a mouse for example will i be able to access everything on my laptop off the touch screen ?

[MartyFaeScotland]

hi, it really depends on what functions you want ... you can access an on-screen keyboard.

but if you require right click functions, you may have to look for other answers.

[etodvs]

Thats awesome, win xp is good idea cuz it runs faster than vista, im gonna do this in my car, Sempron 1.8ghz,1gb ddr memory and Radeon x1300pro or aTi radeon 9250 depends on if i need the x1300pro still.

[pattyfb]

(like this one) for cars?

´d like to know

[sdomega]

Have you seen SD-Omega car pc,who has 20 models. Can your car pc run vista?

[applemacintosh10]

it's hard enough to get vista to run on a desktop ur better off with a car os

[HUMMER87]

[MooZleZ]

w0000w you got a pc in your car running CF so what ?? join the club there are thousands of ppl that have this.. and your so silly to build in a big system instead of going for ITX C2D systems.

[MartyFaeScotland]

[MooZleZ]

no, cuz I dont care to put it on youtube..

[csramin]

This guy is sharing useful information for the people who are looking into a car pc feature for their own car. What are you doing? ...besides making a fool of yourself.

[bretpro]

show what you got you loser

[Dominican3o5]

whats the total price?

[bloodshot772]

Nice, i was thinking of getting sumthing like that, but more pc baised instead of it running its own OS, i want to have sumthing that can run a diagnostic will driving my car, and having a gps system wud be nice too, for my Lan-Evo 3!!! ^_^ IO love her soo much

[MartyFaeScotland]

this is a Windows Xp machine running a program which takes care of the GUI, the in car Diagnostics can be run from other pc based applications... which run normal under XP. or you can get plugins for the GUI which can run them from the touch screen :)

[pokerchris00]

Thats a great installation, smooth and simple. Good reflection of the time and effort taken to make it.

Puggster - you'll have to build one, not get one, they arent available off the shelf ;)

[puggster]
