Couldn't install on Athlon XP 2500

[Aleksandr_T_]

Couldn't install latest XDK on machine with Athlon XP 2500, Win 7, 1.5 Gb RAM,  error "Unknown software exception 0xc000001d"
Does it means that Intel XDK support processors only with SSE2/SSE3?
Where I can found versions (maybe older) which support my CPU?
Thanks for answers in advance.

The XDK runs on top of node-webkit (https://github.com/rogerwang/node-webkit). It is not clear to me if SSE is a requirement, I'll ask engineering if they know how it is compiled, but I believe your suspicion is correct. Most modern compilers are designed to default to generating code for SSE2 and above (this is part of the minimum requirement for both Mac OS X and Windows 8 systems).

Prior versions of the XDK would also have been compiled using the same technique (the XDK was only released last September), so older versions won't make a difference if a requirement for SSE2 is part of the equation.

I received confirmation from engineering that the node-webkit backend for the XDK does get compiled with SSE2. It uses the Chromium project, which uses this compilation level.
