- On this page, INFOPLUS attemts to determine the CPU and math coprocessor
- that you have.
- The CPU is determined by exploiting minor differences between the CPU's.
- INFOPLUS can detect the 8088, 8086, V20, V30, 80188, 80186, 80286, 80386,
- and 80486. Currently, INFOPLUS cannot distinguish between the 386SX and the
- 386DX.
- For a 286/386/486, INFOPLUS will information you of some of the special
- registers and status bits of these CPUs.
- In Coprocessors, INFOPLUS can detect the 8087, 80287, and 80387. It also
- informs on whether the BIOS has set it's flag. On PC/XT computers, this bit
- is determined by a DIP switch setting. On AT's and better, by a CMOS
- setting.
- For a 386/486, INFOPLUS checks to see if the BIOS has set a flag for the
- Weitek coprocessor. Not all BIOSs support this flag.
