If it was not inserted, an operation trying to use a coprocesor instruction would raise an exception, which would be attended and the instruction emulated in software by the program, which was significantly slower. I think it was the Pentium which was complete. The wikipedia says for the 487: 80487 The i487SX (P23N) was marketed as a floating-point unit coprocessor for Intel i486SX machines. It actually contained a full-blown i486DX implementation. When installed into an i486SX system, the i487 disabled the main CPU and took over all CPU operations. The i487 took measures to detect the presence of an i486SX and would not function without the original CPU in place.[26][27][failed verification] -- Cheers, Carlos.
