Once IBM V86 is enabled, you can run DOS-based applications on your modern operating system like Windows XP. IBM V86 provides better performance than these emulators since it is a hardware-based solution and does not require emulation.
Some examples of things that made use of IBM V86 include legacy software and applications that were written for DOS-based systems, such as games, productivity software, and business applications. With IBM V86, users could run these applications on their modern 32-bit operating systems without the need for a separate DOS-based system or emulator software. This feature was particularly useful for business users who needed to run legacy software to maintain compatibility with existing systems and processes.
