A little explanation from “Dr. Pete” Corless…

This application is based on the amazingly wonderful System Errors DA
version 3.0, which was created using Bill Steinberg’s Display DA 2.0.

With System 7, the new errors list exceeded the 32k limit on text
files, forcing me to look elsewhere for a tool to display the whole
list. I am indebted to Sue Clark for poking around on AOL and finding
DOCMaker for me, and to Mark Wall at Green Mountain Software for
creating such a cool app!

I apologize if you find any factual errors in this application.
Unfortunately, I do not have any electronic addresses at this time
to which you can respond with corrections.

Updates will be made if and when I can.

7.5.1 Revision Notes

In attempting to set up my file server on my Centris 610, I kept getting a stupid sad mac with the wierd little sound that it makes.  I thought "oh god, not the mother board", which would have cost more than the machine.  Luckily, I found a neet little program called MacCheck.  I looked inside and found a list of error codes for a "Sad Mac".  I found out that it was only corrupted software (whew!).  Anyway, I attempted to print out this neet little list.  But unfortunately, there is no way to do it.  So, what I did was copied all the info out and typed it in here so that everyone has access to it.  I hope that it is useful.

Version notes…
7.0 -   This was the first version, to coincide with the release
        of Macintosh System 7. Designated “Apple Internal Use Only”
        because I wanted to know if there were any misspellings or
        other errors.

7.0.1 - Added table of contents; expanded Credits. Because of
        overwhelming demand, I designated this version
        “Suitable for public consumption”.

7.5.1 - Revisions by R.C. Yochum.  Added start-up error codes 

and revised error tables.  Compiled in part from data

obtained from MacCheck, the Apple Utility.
