It is a death chime. Could be a RAM/ROM Error. Open the case and check/reseat the RAM/ROM. Which ROM do you use? Rominator sometimes does not fit very well in the ROM slot.

Hi. Testing ram in SE/30 is a pita as it requires to fill 4 modules for each bank.
I moved ram to color classic which have banks of two simms and I was able to figure out the bad simm. So, yes, the issue has been a faulty simm.
Thank you

Pretty sure that's a ram issue as the screen is garbled like that. Has the logic board been recapped?

yeah, board is recapped. But I figured out the dad simm module. Now I'm waiting for a replacement.
Thank you
