When you push the reset button, then the programmer's interrupt switch,
you get this scale played on the speaker (like the startup sound, but
ssslllllooowwwweeeeerrr). What does it mean? (just curious...)
Also, does anybody know how to set the clock to be a 24 hour clock (like
changing one of the international resources in the system file or some such)

This is a test of the emergency signature system. Were this an actual
signature, you would see amusing mottos or edifying philisophical
statements. This is only a test.

What does it mean? (just curious...) I assume that you are talking about the Mac II here - that is one of the diagnostic sounds on the machine. There is a demo program (probably archived at sumex-aim.stanford.edu) that cycles through all of the sounds telling you what they mean. >Also, does anybody know how to set the clock to be a 24 hour clock (like Try the General cdev in the Control Panel (works on 6.0.2 & 6.0.3, maybe earlier). /////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////////// / Robert Hammen | Service Bureau Manager and Macintosh Consultant / / Bulfin Printers | 1887 N.

I had a similar thing happening on my Plus with Radius Full Page Display and Accelerator. Everytime I would boot it, instead of giving the normal "boing", it would give a much longer "Bboooiiinnnngggggggggg", lasting perhaps a full second. Eventually it went away, after our hard drive (Rodime) went out to lunch.
