My epson r210 doesn't print black. It has continuous ink installed in it. It prints all the colored ink except the black ink. It seems that the black ink doesn't reach the ink cartridge. Do you happen to know what might be the problem, and how do i fix it. Do you know a website that might have the answer to my problem?

About the quality of the video played on it and editing.
Is the onboard high-definition audio truly amazing.
Its speed against any AMD machine.
Also how much RAM do I need if I buy one and which one to buy - DDR2 or DDR?
Will it support Vista at a pace?

I was putting my notebook's 2.5'' hdd into an external enclosure. Placed the hdd on top of a clear plastic card, on top of a glass table. Events which are too embarassing to detail led to a few drops of drinking water along the side of the hdd and seeped between it and the plastic sheet. I noticed within 5 minutes and used a paper napkin to dab along the non-metal-plated side of the hdd. None of the pins got wet, only about a square inch area that includes the center of the hdd. I'm assuming a few drops of water may have seeped in. Can I still save my drive? There was no power running through the device at anytime, and it's currently in a cool, dry place. I don't care about data, I just want to be able to use it.
