== How to use == # Pick your machine from the '''Machine''' dropdown. The format of the codes (short vs. expanded two-line) is set automatically. # Enter the hex code shown below the Sad Mac icon. Compact Macs (128K, 512K, Plus) display a single six-digit code; everything from the SE onwards uses two lines of eight hex digits. # Click '''Decode'''. For RAM-fault classes you'll also see a board diagram with the failing chip(s) highlighted in red. # Click '''โถ Play this machine's Chime of Death''' to hear the audio that machine produces alongside the Sad Mac. Compact Macs (128K through Plus) are silent on failure and will show a notice instead.
