Whenever I start Hypercard, I hear a click from my Mac when it is just over half loaded. Is this normal, or is there something wrong with my Mac? I haven't noted any other adverse Hypercard behavior. I do suspect that I have a faulty power supply, but when I took it in for service they didn't find anything wrong with it. (The symptoms were an intermittent high-pitched whining and unsteady display, neither of which have occurred lately.) Thanx, Jon

I believe it is the sound of HyperCard turning on the Sound drivers/devices. ------------------------------------------------------------------------------ In Real Life: Michael Nowak | Cogito Via Internet: mike@ronin.cc.umich.edu | Ergo Via UUCP: uunet!umix!ronin.cc.umich.edu!mike | Zoom!

Is this normal, or is there something wrong with my Mac? I get it too. My assumption is that HyperCard is initializing access to sound routines, so that "boing" can happen in interactive time, usw. Any HyperHacker confirm this? Walter

The first stack I wrote when I got HyperCard with my SE last August was a version of the **much talked about** HyperFinder. I installed ICONs into HyperCard, linked buttons to them, added visual effects, and generally hacked around to learn this "new" program. I named this stack "Application/Directory". Since August, I've created some more simple stacks and also have accumulated the stacks posted to comp.binaries.mac. Now, at very random intervals, (say, one in ten), when I open any stack, or just double click on HyperCard, my "Application/Directory" stack appears??? Does HyperCard remember"pushed" cards that might get "popped" at launch? Any insight, HyperGurus? -- Dean Wormell ...!{harvard,ima}!bbn!aoa!dean
