Need some help please with my new SE/30...
Purchased it last week on ebay and it's acting very strange. Boots right up, but all folders except the System Folder, files and apple menu items keep disappearing and reappearing. When you open the System Folder it appears empty. The SE/30 (4MB, 40MB HD) came loaded with 7.1, but after this issue cropped up, I loaded 7.0.1, ran the updater and the problem continued. Even a version of 7.0.1 that I loaded directly from a zip drive (works perfectly on my Mac Plus) did the same thing. And here's where it gets even stranger... 6.0.8 works great from the HD or the zip. As a further test, I just loaded 7.5.3 and the disappearing/reappearing is back.
Anyone have any ideas or suggestions??
Thanks, Robert
