SSE2 support?

Post by lookitscook »

I am running Windows XP Pro as guest on a Kubuntu 7.10 host.
I have Photoshop and Flash CS3 running flawlessly, but would like to install Premiere CS3 as well. Unfortunetly the installer (and virtualbox log file) says I have no SSE2 support. My processor is an AMD XP 2800, is there any way to enable this?

No. Only Athlon 64 has SSE2 or SSE3.

Ha. Thanks for the help. Guess I better think about upgrading.

lookitscook: Your processor is *very fast*, so I don't think you can gain much from upgrading (for normal applications).
