Hi.

I just acquired a MacIntosh IIx, and everything seemed to work fine,
and then, suddenly, I have the following series of problems:

Under MULTIFINDER:

1. Application I am running suddenly "halts unexpectedly (1)", 
and I am required to hit a box with the OK in it.

2. "Cannot Load Finder", which always hangs, and requires that I
reboot the system.

Under FINDER:

1. Application I am running bombs, with ID=1, and very rarely ID=2.

Under either circumstance, regardless of application, the system
will hang or (under MultiFinder) exit unexpectedly.  

I understand that ID=1 is an address buss error, and ID=2 is an
illegal instruction.  Do not hesitate to correct my understanding!

Concerned that it was the disk drive (because it could not "load finder"),
I completely reformatted my disk drive, and rebuilt the operating system
and applications.  The problem persists.

I have had it in the shop once, but the problem is increasingly 
intermittent, and the problem could not be reproduced in the shop.

I suspect it is the RAM, or its connectors.

Any suggestions would be greatfully appreciated.  Please keep in mind
that I have a IIx, not a IIcx.

Cheers and thanks,

Steve Keith
