Well, they're sort of gone.  Here's the details:

IIcx, 8/80, 8bit Apple video card.  For the moment, assume it's running
a clean System 7, with extensions disabled.

In 256 color mode, all works fine.  The desktop windows display the
icl8's in color, and look good.  When I switch to 16 color mode, things
appear to work - the icons get redrawn with the icl4 resources.  But
this only lasts until I close the Monitors' window.  As soon as I do
this, or click on a finder window, all icons revert to the ICN# resource!
Argh! 

I have tried rebuilding the desktop, with no success.  Any ideas as
to the cause and/or the solution???

Thanks in advance
-rob.

(And, if there's anyone out there running System 7 on a IIcx 8/80, could
you please e-mail me?  I'd like to ask a favor ...)
