I currently have an AMD Athlon HP 3000 desktop. operating at 2.167GHz. when I purchased it 3 yrs ago, I was told that it was pentium IV comparable.
recently I purchased software that required as minimum requirement either Intel Pentium 4, Pentium M or Centrino @ 1.3GHz. I thought because I had 2.167GHz I was okay. NOT SO.
got error message: SSE2 missing
it seems that I need to upgrade my motherboard and CPU
can anyone tell me if HP has a chip I can have inserted into my motherboard rather than buy a new one and all the other 'brains' that goes with it.
any help would be appreciated.

Mr Kaminsky built a web page, http://www.doxpara.com, where people can find out whether their computers have the DNS vulnerability. As of Thursday, slightly more than half the computers tested at the website still needed to be patched.
Two 'exploits,' software snippets that take advantage of the vulnerability, have been unleashed on the Internet in the past 24 hours, Securosis analyst Mr Rich Mogul said during the conference call. |
