Icons hidden on Mac Classic?

[Dylan Malama]

I have a Mac Classic, that I have always had System 6.0.8 installed on, but
unfortunately when I started it back up today after several months of not
using it, all the icons and files and folders and everything are hidden,
but trash and hard disk. Even the floppies that I put in, the icons are
hidden.
But, the weird part, I can search anything and it will come up and work as
normal.
When I restart the computer, all of the icons I dug up by searching them
are all gone.

Could you guys help me make sense of this? I have no clue where to start. I
have searched everywhere.

Those suggestions are just shooting arrows in the dark.

The flyback would not cause vertical lines. The logic board has axial caps and 
isn’t really prone to simasimac from bad caps. The power supply may be suspect. 
I’d reseat the RAM modules and check voltages (mostly the +5V). If you can’t 
adjust the +5V properly, look at recapping the power supply.

True.  I'd try re soldering the fly-back transformer & power connectors.

Might as well plan on a re-cap of the logic board as well.
