I didn't find the use of Hypercard necessary. I just renamed the
snd resources with ResEdit and then they worked fine.
(As was suggested by someone earlier). I did have to go
through a slight gyration to get them into the snd format for the
system (I used SoundEdit, though other ways are possible). I find
that the "GAME OVER" sound makes a nice system beep.
Disclamier: Make a back-up copy of Solarian II before you mess with
ResEdit. I'm not to blame if you screw it up!
