DrJägermeister Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 But i ran some utilities (3d mark 2001), which told me my processor supports SSE2.And that is Sempron no AThlonXP. sry for mistake There are 2 Semprons: socket A (462) and socket 754. One is based on a AthlonXP (462) and will not work, the other is based on a Athlon64 (754) and will work.

SenVa Posted February 23, 2006 Share Posted February 23, 2006 I know that there is a x86 emulator (qemu) that supports sse2 emulation... so it is possible to install osx on a sse only cpu, but it is only slightly faster then pearpc... Now it is my understainding that the sse2 requirment comes from darwin86 needing sse2... wouldn't it possible to mod the darwin kernel to have sse2 emulation?
