Re: SE/30 Locks up at Finder start

[Nolen Scaife]

I apologize, I forgot to say.  I am trying to boot this off of several  
types of boot disks (system 7, 6).  The hard drive is blank with no  
data on it right now.  Could it still be an issue with the drive?

So I figure I can rule out any kind of hard drive problem.
Try swapping the ribbon cable and if that doesn't work then swap the  
power
cable too.

I also have an external SCSI drive
that boots my Mac Plus, but won't boot my SE/30.
That would happen if the System install was just for a Plus, instead  
of an
install for all Macs or an SE/30.

Is this an issue that could be a dead PRAM battery?
Doubt it.

Is there a problem with my logic board?
Probably, if above mentioned cable swap doesn't work.

There are a couple of repair links worth seeing in the first paragraph  
here;
