In medley 1.0 (and possibly 1.1) on the 1186, PC emulation did not work.
My memory is hazy, but I vaguely recall that the window would come up, DOS
would boot, but keyboard input went straight into hyperspace. The reason I
is that someone has offered me an old 1186 for sale and it would be a
bonus to be able to run PC stuff.
