Virtual DOS machines can operate either exclusively through typical software emulation methods (e.g. dynamic recompilation) or can rely on the virtual 8086 mode of the Intel 80386 processor, which allows real mode 8086 software to run in a controlled environment by catching all operations which involve accessing protected hardware and forwarding them to the normal operating system (as exceptions).
Cross-platform/POSIX API: binaries for 64-bit Raspberry Pi 4/400, Intel macOS Mojave through Sonoma, ARM macOS Sonoma, and 64-bit Intel Linux (also runs under FreeBSD and Windows 10/Windows 11 with WSL). Includes a Pascal cross compiler for the KDF9. GPL3
[10] [11] [12] touchHLE is a compatibility layer (referred to as a “high-level emulator”) for Windows and macOS made by Andrea "hikari_no_yume" (Sweden) in early 2023 to run legacy 32-bit iOS software. The compatibility layer was only able to run one software, Super Monkey Ball as of version 0.1.0.

A member of the series, Windows XP, debuted on October 25, 2001, and became the first consumer-oriented version of Windows to not use DOS. Although Windows XP could emulate DOS, it could not run many of its applications as they ran only in real mode to directly access the computer's hardware, and Windows XP's protected mode prevented such ...
PearPC only runs on x86 systems including Intel and AMD such as Windows, Linux, FreeBSD, and ReactOS. [9] [10] The emulator features a just-in-time (JIT) processor emulation core which dynamically translates PPC code into x86 code, caching the results.
Many 16-bit Windows legacy programs can run without changes on newer 32-bit editions of Windows. The reason designers made this possible was to allow software developers time to remedy their software during the industry transition from Windows 3.1 to Windows 95 and later, without restricting the ability for the operating system to be upgraded to a current version before all programs used by a ...
Wine can run 16-bit Windows programs on a 64-bit operating system, which uses an x86-64 (64-bit) CPU, [59] a functionality not found in 64-bit versions of Microsoft Windows. [60] [61] WineVDM allows 16-bit Windows applications to run on 64-bit versions of Windows. [62] Wine partially supports Windows console applications, and the user can ...
