I also am having trouble with error 0308. When I use my copy of Apple's disk for determining what is the problem with a system, (diagnostics 3.0), I sometimes get a crash. Sometimes I get an error about RAM, and sometimes an error about Serial Port crystal. Any Ideas? Could it be my power supply. Why would the test show different things wrong if it were not the power supply? I'm sure that Apple will tell me to take it to the dealer, but they atre closed. The other dealer was told to choose whether to support Apple or Messy DOS; He made the correct business decision! In any event, I'm perty much on my own. Thanks for any help. Larry

In-Reply-To: message from larry@lablues.UUCP Apple //gs Diagnostic programs? Where did you pick these up? I need some because I get scattered GS errors, and sometimes I think there's something wrong with my hardware, I do have a lot of stuff inside it! :) Chris ------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Chris Moylan ProLine: geniusman@pro-hindugods Internet: geniusman@pro-hindugods.cts.com UUCP: crash!pro-hindugods!geniusman ARPA: crash!pro-hindugods!geniusman@nosc.mil -------------------------------------------------------------------------------

As to were I got mine from, that is a good question! Unfortunately, I do not know the answer. I think I acquired mine with one of the GS's our college bought. Unfortunately, mine is Vers. 2.0, dated 1986, and a ROM 03 machine will fail the ROM/CPU test. I have seen reference from someone (Larry ?) of a version 3.0. I did not, however, get a Diagnostic Disk when I purchased my ROM 03 machine. Ray Waxmonsky (waxmonrw@snybufva) Dept. of Geography Buffalo State College

Did you boot your machine from the Apple II diagnostics diskette, or laucnch it from the finder? I remember having tons of problems when using the diags after launching it from the finder. Try booting the machine straight from the diskette to see if that removes the intermittency. Also, try the built in ROM diagnostics (CTRL-OA-CA-RESET).
