Teri, Are the horizontal lines thick and alternating black and white ?
I'll bet your ROM SIMM is bad or the pads on the edge card type connector are worn clear thru, like my oldest SE/30 did. I got a new ROM from a guy named OldMacMilt on eBay. Do a search for either the ROM or him by name. I re-soldered all the pads, and there are a lot of them, for a temporary fix. Trick is to solder each one the same thickness. Careful not to make the solder too thick. Keep that solder tip hospital-clean. As a test, pull it out, inspect it under a magnifying light for wear, and re-insert it. If it boots up now, you've just located your problem. I'd be glad to do it for you, for a very nominal fee, if you wish. Good luck, Mac Man Mark Macintosh Computer On-site Service [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- (Double Play Band, too) > Date: Tue, 18 Jun 2002 15:30:20 -0400 > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] (Compact Macs) > Subject: Compact Macs Digest #1181 > > Doing computer support has convinced me that most people really don't do a > lot with their computers.
