I have noticed that when in an application (and under multifinder), mouse
clicks in windows other than the application's often get no response.
If I'm in the Acta application and click in the Red Ryder window, nothing 
happens. If I move the Acta window, newly uncovered windows do not get
updated - they remain blank white. The problem is not specific to the Acta
application, also occurs in other applications. Clicking in finder 
windows while running an application often has the same problem. I can 
switch applications using the apple menu,  not by clicking on the 
application icons in the upper right corner of the screen. Anyone else notice
this problem?

I am running a Mac IIci w/ 8 MB and an E-Machines Z21 IQ monitor. The only
inits and cdevs running ar Multidisk, the E-Machines init, and init cdev 2.0.

Another IIci, configured with the same software and hardware, has the same
problem.

Thanks for any help.
