Correct. I meant it started to boot. <>It just won't boot in a SE because it is set up for a 030 CPU. <Drives can't be set up for a specific CPU. Again correct, I should said the OS was setup for a 030 CPU. (is that correct?) <the pickle Anyway, I put the CC back together and booted it with an external SCSI terminator (like before). It booted (like before). I removed the external terminator (I don't know why). It booted (NOT like before). So I booted several times it with and without the external terminator. It booted every time. So what's changed? Well I put in a different floppy drive. It doesn't work either. :-( And I used air to blow out a lot of dust. And I mean a LOT! The only thing I can think of is I dislodged a bit of crud that was shorting something... and then it gets fuzzy and mumble.... johnsn -- Compact Macs is sponsored by <http://lowendmac.com/>.
