Emulated hardware
Complete list of emulated hardware
 * CPU: Any CPU from an 8086/8088 to a Pentium II-era Celeron (Mendocino) and any board from 8086/8088 to Socket 370 (including Slot 1 and 2 and Virtual PC 2007) is supported, including IDT/VIA/Cyrix/ST/ALi/AMD variants, with clock speeds ranging from 4.77 to 733 MHz. A dynamic recompiler is available, optional for 486 and WinChip and mandatory for Pentium and later processors.
 * FPU: FPUs are emulated automatically for all 486DX and higher machines. For 8086/8088/286/386/486SX machines, a 8087/287(XL)/387/487SX FPU can be emulated optionally.
 * RAM: 16 KB to 1024 MB (depending on the machine)
 * Hard drives: Hard drives can be plugged into the MFM, RLL, XTA, ESDI, IDE, SCSI and ATAPI buses. Identified as "86B_HDxx".
 * CD-ROM drives: CD-ROM drives can be plugged into the SCSI and ATAPI buses. Versions below 3.8 have the ATAPI drives named "86B_CDxx", 3.8 and later use "HITACHI CDR-8130" instead. The SCSI ones are named "TOSHIBA".
 * Floppy disk drives: 86Box emulates 5.25" 180k, 360k, 720k and 1.2M drives, as well as 3.5" 360k, 720k, 1.25M, 1.44M and 2.88M drives.
 * Magneto optical drive: These drives can be plugged into the SCSI and ATAPI buses.
 * ZIP drives: These drives can be plugged into the SCSI and ATAPI buses. Both "ZIP 100" and "ZIP 250" types are supported.
