Re: What OS Should my Macintosh SE run?

2017-10-07 Thread Chris Hanson
It’s very likely an analog board issue, rather than an issue of software or the 
hard disk.

What exactly does the vertical stripe effect look like?

Probably not a hard drive issue. That’s more akin to a memory issue. Try 
opening it up and reseating the RAM SIMMs before anything else.

What OS Should my Macintosh SE run?

2017-10-07 Thread Sam Taber
Hi,

I recently obtained a Macintosh SE for 10 dollars, and i am getting a 
vertical stripe effect on the monitor. I do not know if this is a hard 
drive failure, but I assume that is the problem.

I wanted to know, if I could find what system software my Macintosh SE 
Model 5011.

Thanks!
