This is a post for a friend. He is using his Mac to do desktop publishing. During the day when he is working in an air conditioned office building it works fine. When he takes it home occasionally though, it exhibits several bizarre symptoms like not recognizing the video card, not playing the start-up sound etc. Could he possibly be having a problem with humidity. Another possiblity we thought of is a problem with the battery. It was rumored that the early macs had problems with the battery. Just to give you a run down of his equipment, He has a Mac II, (purchased 11/87), with 1 meg of ram, 40 meg internal hard drive, color monitor, with video expansion card and expansion kit. If you could e-mail any responses to me I would greatly appreciate it. Thanks, Ben Greenwald Wheaton College Wheaton IL, 60187
