I bought a Mac SE through the university. From day 1, I had problems
with the Hard Disk. When not installed as the startup disk, it
periodically refused to show up on the desk top. If I turned the machine off and
tried again, I had a good chance of getting it to appear. I have a
similar problem now that it is the Startup disk. Sometimes it works
and other times it doesn't.

I took it back to the school, an authorized apple dealer, and had
them check it out. "Nothing is wrong with it," they told me. "You
can try putting a newer version of finder and the system on, but I
don't know what else to tell you." So I did. Guess what, it still
does it. I don't know if it's coincidal but, it seems to be doing it
a little less frequently. However, it still does it. 

Has anyone out there had a similar experience?(With the machine or
the dealers) Any suggestions? Help
