No issues on install and launch. However... I tried to run two of my favorite games - "Star Wars Episode 1 Racer" and "Star Wars Dark Forces". Both seem to hang OS 9 (within SheepShaver - SheepShaver itself continues to run). Any thoughts would be very much appreciated! Loved the idea behind this emulator, and installed COI V4.0.1.

I've installed all the emulators there are and can't get any to move faster than that. If anyone knows a way, however technical, let me know cuz I'd love to implement it. Thanks!

Good to know, Anthony #101. I have kept my Imac on OS 10.3.9 so I can still use this program that I have had since, I think, 1988. I have tried, Quicken and Quickbooks, neither of which I cared for, but even if I did like one of them, I would still like to have my 20 years of data easily available. So I will wait to buy a new computer. Since misery loves company, I am happy to see that someone else is using MacMoney, a nice, straightforward financial program. Good to know, Anthony #101.

I've tried Mac-on-Mac, Basilisk II without success. Mostly I've been using SheepShaver since the beginning of this quest. With SheepShaver I've managed to install Mac OS 7.6.1, 8.6 and 9.0.4. I've played with the extensions and control panels and I don't know what else. But, still Folio Views causes the OSs to hang "forever".

It asks me if I would like to initialize it. Should I? or would that be a mistake? I know it'll erase whatever is on that disk, but it's called "untitled" and I don't know what it actually is or what it has.

If you are having trouble booting from a disc image created with MacOS X disc utility, it is because the drivers needed to boot in classic are not installed on the image by default. To solve this, after you create the disc image, use the MacOS X utility to "partition" the image and make sure you check the box that says "Install Mac OS 9 Disk Drivers". Then I just copied the files from the non-working image to the new one... then I blessed the system folder while it was mounted in SheepShaver (at this time running off the CD). OR you can just reinstall MacOS 9 on the new image from the CD. Hope this helps. I know this is a little late in coming, but this is for others finding this blog entry via google.
