Simple question SSE2 or SSE3 ?

I have a AMD opteron 146 which support both SSE2 and SSE3, so I choose both patch to install.

 

Is it correct?

 

Now I get random kernel panic and from which OS is killed. I wonder if it has something to do with it ?

I get the same thing if I install both. I also get it if I install just the SSE3. But if I install only the SSE2 it works flawless. My machine is a Dell Optiplex GX520 with a P4 3.2 prescotte processor. So I know it's SSE3.

 

Try just installing SSE2.

finally get some response!

 

Thanks man, I will try, and will let you guys know the result

 

And one more question, what is the purpose of SSE2 patch and SSE3 patch ?

 

Does anyone know, can you kindly tell me please ?

 

And thanks in advance !

Strange, my install was working perfectly with both of them. :)

Until I installed the 10.4.7 update that is...

Maybe i'll reinstall with only SSE3 and see if the update works. :D

 

 

Out of curiosity what are the specs of the machine you are using that had both patches installed?

Ok I tested to install with only SSE3, working fine, until I install CHUD with Xcode.

 

So I check the log to see what's the problem and saw something like this:

Fail to launch backtrace module(with dependence of kernel), CHUDKernLib

 

So I'm pretty sure that it is CHUD who raped my OSX

 

Then I install Xcode without CHUD, and everything works fine, cheers !

 

My PC is,

AMD Opteron 146 2G

DDR2 400 2G

2 Sata, 1 IDE

ASUS A8N5X mainbord

Geforce 6800XT

 

I used to installed both SSE2 and SSE3, it worked well, only once when I re-install sata driver, it crashed

I'm still not if it's OSX who's not stable itself or it's because I installed both patch

You will ALWAYS get a kernel panic if you install 10.4.7 from software update. A L W A Y S. If you have an SSE3 cpu, select SSE3, if not, select SSE2. When you select both, it still only installs one. Because one overwrites the other.
