Im not much of a computer software techie guy so does anyone know of a good program or simple multimedia OS that i can install on my carputer?...

Im going to install the media center edition windows but the "media center" part of it sucks up alot of puterin power when its working...and its not very reliable - previous disgust, i mean experience.
Lookin for a all in one kind of thing w/ dvd playback, music, misc videos.. etc..
im lookin!

Is it the VIA SP13000? I used to have that setup and found it a bit slow in some places, ie. GPS navigation screen refreshes were slow. It got the job done, but when I switched to an AMD XP2200+ there was a major difference.

RoadRunner is definitely the way to go. Best support and features by far. The IGNative especially.
