Hi,
I tried running Norton Utilities - 6.0.3 in Sheepshaver (8.6 old rom and 9.0.4 new rom). Launching Disk Doctor causes Sheepshaver to hang. Inspecting Windows Task Manager (Windows x64 Professional) shows Sheepshaver consuming 50% cpu on my dual-core CPU. So I have to forcefully kill it in Windows.
Just wondering if NU 6.0.3 is supported or known issue? Thanks!

The issue is supporting actual SCSI hardware -- the emulator takes a lot of liberties, and so doesn't play nicely with low-level software that expects direct hardware access. HDSC Setup has the same problems.

SpeedDisk or how it was called, was the only app working in emulation.
