Can't help you with Newt number 2, but number one sounds like what happened
to me. If you use the wrong power supply on an MP2k it exhibits this
behavior. There is a repair available fro a man named Dave Watson (aka. Dr.
Newton). He can help with number 1-type problems.

We trained hard- but it seemed that every time we began to form up into
teams, we would be reorganized. I was to learn later in life that we tend to
meet any new situation by reorganizing- and a wonderful method it can be for
creating the illusion of progress while producing confusion, inefficiency,
and demoralization.
