I've just run the NU8 version of SpeedDisk over my machine under OpenDOS 7.01
with no problems what so ever. It all seems fine as long as I don't try
to run it under the multi-tasker at which point it just refuses to start,
same with Disk Edit. Have you tried the updates for NU8 from Symantec's web
site?  I don't know if they'll help but I'm using them :)

Mmm, I tried Disk Edit and it would hang with the floppy light on, just
after clearing the screen and showing the menus.  The same with Disk
Edit from version 7.00 too.
