I have a Macintosh II that keeps crashing with a Sad Mac face. This occurs during operation, not at startup. The problem began occurring shortly after I installed a Quantum 80 Meg drive, replacing a Quantum 40 Meg. I am getting the following error codes along with the Sad Mac face: 0000000F 00000033 Does anyone know what these codes mean? Or where to find translations? More Info: System: 6.0.5 Network: Ethernet/Appletalk

Or where to find translations? The 0000000F codes mean the same as the System Error codes-- $33 = 51 is bad/unservicable slot interrupt. I don't see how your drive could have anything to do with it-- unless you needed to install some Ethernet software that you didn't. It seems more likely that the problem lies with the Ethernet card. -- Matthew T. Russotto russotto@eng.umd.edu russotto@wam.umd.edu .sig under construction, like the rest of this campus.

The Mac at work also started giving similar messages (it does have an Ether-Net card) but these stopped when I converted to System 7.0 (now it just doesn't boot-up first go, we have to switch off at the wall and try again. Soemone suggested that the power supply might not be giving out enough power at startup and the physical reset could reduce the amount of stress caused by the drive ie it is already spinning so the supply doesn't get a major surge.)

That code isn't similiar. 3 == illegal instruction. Probably means the mac tried to execute corrupted driver code on the bad drive. -- Matthew T.
