- I've got a Borrowed LC 10/40 running System 7 w/12" RGB monitor.
-
- Problem: I was adjusting the "VIEWS" setup control panel and suddenly
- the computer froze. Okay, so I restart. Problem now is, I get the
- "Happy Mac" face, then I get a disk with a question mark (?) through it,
- and nothing happens. How- I've had this happen once before (eons ago)
- and I seem to remembed someone mentioning a CORRUPT SYSTEM FILE.
- Reinstalling the system software fixed it.
-
- Answer: Could someone EMAIL me telling me if this is the problem?
- Unfortunately, I was a fool and didn't bring the system disks WITH me, but
- I just want to make sure that all I need to do is a re-install of the
- system.
- Thanks a lot!
