Re: [Mingw-users] An error regarding AMD-XOP and emmintrin.h?

[Andrew S. <ver...@ya...>]

Hi Gisle,

"I read via Google, that "AMD Bulldog" CPU or newer is required. I'm still
using a Intel i3 CPU :-( So I cannot check this."

Its not Bulldog, its Bulldozer, its part of the Zambezi architecture and I have an AMD-8150 FX
which is part of that architecture yet I can't seem to get it running. Well thats ok, maybe someone
with the correct CPU will chime in, if you have any other suggestions feel free to add.

thanks,

Andrew

I don't think so.

I read via Google, that "AMD Bulldog" CPU or newer is required. I'm still
using a Intel i3 CPU :-( So I cannot check this.
