Hi, I have a very old computer here with me. Pentium I (1.66 Mhz), along with all the old hardwares inside. When I boot it up: the indicator light near the power on button of the monitor blinks instead of staying lit on. The LED on the hard disk stays lit on.

I inherited an old Canon BJC 2110 ?Bubble? jet printer that I would like to get running. It runs, and tries to print fine, but produces nothing but blank pages. I bought two new cartridges, color & black, and have tried to print text as well as a color pic. The printer goes through the motions...

I removed the battery and repositioned the jumper cap to clear system parameters but after rebooting the...
