Alright, tested the ups theory and read around a bit more. My ups will not allow me to turn it on without ac power applied, so I would have to get another that would allow such a thing and then I would have to be hitting an extra button each time I turn the computer on. What's funny too is that the 250VA UPS couldn't handle the computer, it would shut down when going to battery power. If I took the video card out and unplugged the hard drive it would work ok. lol

I think I will just go buy an inverter. If I don't use it in the end it will be a nice tool to have around for road trips or something.

cfg83, explain to me what you mean by being able to turn on and off gizmo's. Can I actually control the ECU/PCM through the OBDII port?

I am doing all of this but realizing that I am diving headfirst into stuff I know almost nothing about :0.
