[comp.sys.mac.hardware] HELP! SAD MAC ICON!!!!!*******

thewho@portia.Stanford.EDU (Derek Fong) (06/13/90)

My SE/30 which has given me 1.5 years of trouble free service just freaked out
on me.  I turned it on and up came a sad Mac icon with the code:

0 0 0 0 0 0 F
0 0 0 0 0 0 A

What in the world does this mean?  Am I up the creek?  What is strange is that
the machine boots fine off floppy and the hard drive is recognized.  In fact,
if I run a few apps and then quit them, the system and finder on the Hard drive
"take over."  What is the matter with my machine?  I am thinking and HOPING
that it is system software related.  What is first done when the machine boots
up?  Please help me ASAP as I am at school for only one more day and have
access to the Network only one more day.

Thanks very much in advance.
