Kalle Kaitala
Working on one of these old boxes, setting it up for home use, came across

disconnected, the machine still manages to boot itself up more or less 15
minutes after shutdown. I'm guessing PSU or motherboard issue? Maybe...

'input signal out of range' error message by
Homer Simpson
That sounds more like a message from your monitor instead of from the PC.
