You can use VINFO, part of Jerome's V8 Power Tools, which is installed as part of FreeDOS. > /M Return Machine Type (This may break on future platforms) > Returns these exit codes: > 0 - Unknown, Normal or Native 8086 Hardware. > 1 - 80186 > 2 - 80286 > 3 - 80386 > 4 - 80486 > 5 - 80586 > 6 - 80686 or better > 101 - DOSBox. > 102 - QEMU. > 103 - VirtualBox. > 104 - VMware. > 200 - General, other emulator detected. For example, if I boot FreeDOS in VirtualBox and run the following TEST.BAT file, I get 103, indicating VirtualBox: @echo off vinfo /m echo %ERRORLEVEL% If I boot FreeDOS in QEMU and run the same TEST.BAT file, I get 102, indicating QEMU.
