graphics with transparencies and OS 9

Actually, I'm not really sure if this is an issue with transparencies or
with the windowShape property.
Here's what's happening. I have an application that uses a png graphic as a
window shape. When I run the app on a non-locked volume, it displays as it
should, including the transparency. But if I run the app from a locked
volume (CD-ROM), it doesn't work. The stack window displays in a normal
rectangular window without the special shape, and there is no transparency.
This is only happening under Mac OS 9, and I have tried using both png and
gif images with the same results. Anyone have any ideas why this would be
happening? Why would an app need a writable volume in order to display a
window shape like that? I can upload some screenshots and post links if
necessary.
Thanks,
