Yup. Your more detailed testing seems to confirm the hunch I had at the weekend workshop that SSE2 is the culprit. Thanks for the info. It would be really great if we could somehow resolve this quickly. I have a WinXP install under Linux, but it seems to see my CPU as an Athlon X2, so that won't work. But I also have an old laptop with a dual-boot XP that's a PIII (no SSE2, and probably the oldest reasonable hardware we can expect to support). If someone can provide me with simple instructions on what needs to be done to build numpy on that thing, without buying any software, I can volunteer to run a build script on every release that's PIII-safe. I know nothing about developing on XP, but I'm willing to install the necessary tools (if free) to at least get this built, because this is really an untenable situation. Auto-crashing isn't really a selling point for software, even under Windows :) Cheers, f _______________________________________________ Numpy-discussion mailing list Numpy-discussion@scipy.org http://projects.scipy.org/mailman/listinfo/numpy-discussion
