I have two servers for testing, one is amd and the other is intel. As
suggested by someone on the xen- lists, I use the following:
cpuid = [ '0:eax=0x3,ebx=0x0,ecx=0x0,edx=0x0',
 
'1:eax=0x06b1,ecx=xxxxxxxxxxx0000xx00xxx0000000xx0,edx=xxx00000xxxxxxx0x
xxxxxxxx0xxxxxx',
 '4:eax=0x3,ebx=0x0,ecx=0x0,edx=0x0',
 '0x80000000:eax=0x3,ebx=0x0,ecx=0x0,edx=0x0']
 to reduce the feature set to a 'lowest common denominator' between the
two. Unfortunately, that means I can't install Microsoft Silverlight
"Your CPU does not support eh SSE instruction set which is required by
Silverlight"... while not really that unfortunate in itself, the
automatic updates don't automatically then go on and install Windows SP2
automatically for me as it obsesses over Silverlight failing to install.
Could a 'lowest common denominator' cpuid feature set be expanded to
include SSE, or are the SSE implementations between AMD and Intel
chipsets different?
Thanks
James
