i should have known that. I am going to assume that is my problem since all my wires and cables are ziptied together. i will check that out tomorrow.

Sleepyrice...that centrafuse program is awesome. I didnt look around on the disc for very long but was there a crack or serial number for it so it doesnt expire in 30 days.

Also that rar file that is labeled north america...is that for iguidance or the gps in centrafuse...thx in advance

eh i figure he would want more space. 16gb now a days is really small. If he was just going to use 16gigs all he would need would just be a video ipod...with a audio and video out. Why spend all that money on his setup only to be limited by the hdd space. I have 4gigs of music and 70gigs of movies and tv shows alone.

Touchscreens need a power input which is actually powered from the 5 volt line on the USB. Once you connect S-video to it, there's no power wire inside the S-video wire and it'll just transmit the data. But the touchscreen won't work because it's not powered by anything.

yes there is a crack in there some where.

in the folder "Lz0" there is a file named "centrafuse.exe"

and you just needa replace the origional centrafuse.exe in ur c>program>fluxmedia>centrafuse

with the one in the folder and the "north america" is for centrafuse. its the maps for northamerica. just unzip it with winrar (if you dont have it, tell me and ill upload my winrar program for you) then ur gonna put the north americn folder in ur c>program>fluxmedia>centrafuse
