Without quoting the earlier two posts...

I had the same thing happen to me with the Colors cdev, in that when
I moused the popup menu to select a different window border scheme,
and then chose it, there was a very long pause.  I thought seriously
about hitting the debugger and/or the reboot switch, but decided to
let it run a bit longer.  Apparently I made the right choice, as
I finally did get new window border colors, and I can still use my
internal hard disk.

So, if you get similar behavior with the Colors cdev, let it finish!!!!
