This is mostly off topic, and while I have not
carefully tracked the project in recent years,
the clover uefi emulator has been said to
work a lot of the time out of the box, but due
to some of the ways that vendors choose to
implement bios features/tables it can require
complex configuration, typically unique for
that particular system (type).  I also seem to
recall there were some utilities to try to
assist figuring out that configuration, but
those were not always for the faint of heart.
The hard part (as is usually the case) was
dealing with those edge cases, even as the
clover project has a lot of documentation
trying to help.
