I've sat at lights, heat on, music cranked and never had a power problem, and I draw a lot of power.

Good to know. My alternator is still the original so it has seen better days. I have a voltmeter on my amp and it has dropped down to 12.2 volts at times so I'm kind of scared what will happen when I put the touchscreen and PC in
I also have that accessory cable plugged into my M2-ATX...just never used my voltmeter on it to see what it outputs when it is turned on.
For hibernation mode, I know you have to enable it in windows, but is there anything special you need to do to the M2-ATX to tell the PC to hibernate or does it do that by itself?
