Overview
PCem is a PC emulator that emulates hardware from the 80's and mid-90's. It however, does not emulate the operating systems as well. To run any program, an operating system needs to be installed in PCEM first.
It has a dynamic recompiler in the works that gives accurate Pentium support, but this is experimental and it's only for 32-bit users. It can also emulate numerous 2D and 3D cards, even the S3 ViRGE, which no other emulator supports.
Operating System Support
{Note: List is incomplete}
List of OS that can be installed on it:
- DOS
- Windows 3/3.11
- Windows 95
- Windows 98
- Select any x86-32 flavor of NT before Vista, it works.
- Some older flavors of Linux (including Debian 3.0)
- BeOS
Video Card Support
- MDA
- Hercules
- CGA
- EGA
- VGA
- A couple of Trident cards
- Tseng ET4000AX
- Tseng ET4000/W32p
- ATI Mach 64
- S3 Trio64
- S3 ViRGE
- 3dfx Voodoo (need another card that does VGA for this, just like the real deal.)
There's also a branch out there that does basic VESA modes for the RIVA 128 and nothing else.
Sound Card Support
- Game Blaster or Creative Music System
- Adlib
- Adlib Gold
- Sound Blaster 1.0 through AWE32
- Gravis Ultrasound
- Windows Sound System
- Innovation SSI-2001 (essentially a PC version of the SID)
