[comp.sys.mac.system] Apple icon lost colors

I think I remember someone else having a similar problem a long time
ago, so I hope it's not too obvious...

I'm using SuperClock 3.9 under System 7.  When I went in to set the
alarm clock, and it went off, my Apple icon on the menu bar turned all
black, as in 1-bit color. 

In fact, everything turned 1-bit, including the folder and file icons,
etc.  When I went in to the Monitors cdev, I clicked on 16 color and
then 256 color and everything was rectified EXCEPT I still have the
black apple.

Incidentally, I have an Apple gray-scale monitor, and the apple gets
its color back if I click "colors" instead of "grays" in the Monitors
cdev.

How can I get the shades of gray with the "grays" setting?

Mac IIcx 4/40, Apple 8-bit color card, new 12" mono monitor.

Thanks !
