I have not had any problem with colorchanges on my MACII. I do use the macII
PRAM patch(I think its on sumex.aim.stanford.edu) I also run color cursor
but it loads in the middle(after vaccine but before pram patch and siutcase)
I have had problems running colordesk cdev( it allows you to use a pict file
as you desktop) it trashed my system file when i tried to run it. I am back
to using "deskpict" cdev with out many problems except it crashes if I run 
giffer. I would try the MACII pram patch and see if that helps.

If anybody as any thoughts why ColorDesk trashed my system file I would
appreciate them. I think it might be suitcase but I can't prove it.
