Very rarely do I get stumped, but I got one for you that stumped me: 

I have 2 macintosh Plus boards, both of them do the exact same thing. Both came in macs. They power up, but show the disk icon with a question mark that does NOT blink. the show solid. Now when I insert a disk, they boot fine. 

This is with, or without the 68030 accelerator that I have. 

But they both have something in common. They dont recognize/boot from my SCSI Zip drive. the LED flashes 1 time on the drive, and thats it. nothing further. 

I do remember when I messed with them a couple years ago, I tried my jaz disk setup on my SE/30 the mac would go sad mac with corrupt video the instant i inserted and picked up the jaz disk, but I chalked it up to bad drivers. 

any ideas?
