Pleased with the results so far. Windows 8.1, Ride Runner shell, directed digital FM receiver, backup camera, combined Bluetooth and wifi dongle, noise cancelling microphone, ECU tuner OBD1 reader software, Streets and Trips 11 navigation software and GPS puck.

Will activate the PC with a spare monitor first, then power up the USB hub in the head unit. After the hub is verified good will power the touch screen and then proceed to tweak the software.
How have you wired it for power? To avoid the power drain from smart and possibly abrupt shutdowns?
