[comp.sys.mac] Help with an SE/30 and software

mmccann@hubcap.clemson.edu (Mike McCann) (06/30/89)

I just recently upgraded from an SE to an SE/30 and I need your help...

  I need to know, from your experience, what software that runs on an SE
  will not run on an SE/30...inits, DAs, programs, etc.

  I would also like to know what software runs on the SE/30 but not the
  SE.

Thanks for any and all help you can offer me,

One problem I have had with the SE/30 in my office--

There seems to be a compatibility problem between Vaccine and MS Word 4.0.
I use gatekeeper on my own machine, but usually keep Vaccine on the 'public'
machines here at the office.

The symptom is that word seems to freeze when you try and launch it.  After
the Word menubar appears, but before the document windoew opens, the Mac just
stops cold in its tracks.  Pressing any key seems to get things going again,
but while thie s problem seems trivial , I can't have this Mac (which is a
TOPS network server) just freezing up at random times--even if it is easy to
fix.  MicroSoftw disclaims any knowledge of the porpoblem.

Has anyone else encountered this?
