Macintosh: WDEF Symptoms



I'm having the following problems under System Software 6.0.7:

* Repeated restarts when doing things (moving folders, files, and so on) on
the desktop

* Flashing warning box with no text in the box

* System bomb with the error message "Address Error"

There aren't any known problems with System 6.0.7, and especially none like
that. We suspect that you're dealing with either a defective logic board
or possibly a virus. I would suggest checking for the virus first, as the
symptoms are similar to WDEF's infection of a Macintosh IIfx.
