Greetings, LEM PowerBooks friends:

A bizarre event with my PowerBook 170, for which I'm curious to know
if this one's a non-problem.

I run lowly MacCheck 1.0 on my my PowerBook upon occasion just to
make sure it'll fly through, and here's what I got today:
-------------------
Starting Tests�
     Starting Logic Board Test�
          Running PRAM Test�
          PRAM Test Passed.

          Running Clock/Interrupt Test�
          Clock/Interrupt Test Passed.


Running ROM Test� ROM Test Failed!

     Logic Board Test failed!
-------------------
Hmmm.... Never seen this before. Anyone?

My PowerBook's on System 7.0.1 * (tune-up), and it exhibits no
problems at all. I replaced the motherboard in May because of the
dreaded frayed power tip from the original power adapter that fried
the chip that recharges the battery (write me off-line for the TIPS
info), and it's been absolutely golden ever since (and yes, upon the
first breeze-through with MacCheck 1.0, no problems).

I haven't had any freezes, crashes, burns, etc., so with this ancient
diagnostic software, should I just ignore it? Or should I ask the
Swaplist or eBay for a copy of (old) TechTool Pro to sniff out the
PowerBook again? TIA....
