See our documentation for an overview of the emulator’s features and user interface. It is also possible to use 86Box on its own with the -vmpath/ -P command line option. WinBox for 86Box by Laci bá’ (Windows only).86Box Manager by Overdoze (Windows only).It is also recommended to use a manager application with 86Box for easier handling of multiple virtual machines.

Most emulation logic is executed in a single thread therefore, systems with better IPC (instructions per clock) generally should be able to emulate higher clock speeds. Performance may vary depending on both host and guest configuration.

Lots of supported peripherals including video adapters, sound cards, network adapters, hard disk controllers, and SCSI adapters.Many available systems, such as the very first IBM PC 5150 from 1981, or the more obscure IBM PS/2 line of systems based on the Micro Channel Architecture.Great range of customizability of virtual machines.Low level emulation of 8086-based processors up to the Pentium with focus on accuracy.Easy to use interface inspired by mainstream hypervisor software.Download Stable Download ExperimentalĨ6Box is a low level x86 emulator that runs older operating systems and software designed for IBM PC systems and compatibles from 1981 through fairly recent system designs based on the PCI bus.
