That's what I though of, too... But today I drove around for some hours with the empeg always on and mostly skipping the tracks - so the temperature with an always spun up hdd would be pretty high. And it ran perfectly. The temperature outside was pretty warm, too - I think it was pretty similar to the temperature-environment I had last friday...

Which image has to be on the player to make a self-test?
Has it to be connected via serial with a Terminal Emulation?
