- When I tried to run certain Norton 6.01 programs under Windoze3.1 I got an
- error message that said that Norton cannot run under any multitasking
- environment, such as Windows. Affected applications were Calibrate, Speed
- Disk, Disk Doctor, and some other important ones.
- Things like File Find and SysInfo worked fine.
-
- I would like to know if Norton Utilities (for DOS) will work under OS2.
- Things like SpeedDisk can be very dangerous to run while multitasking
- (if even possible). How does Norton respond to OS2?
- Will I be able to use it when I get OS2?
-
- Thanks,
- Peter Volpe
