Thanks, Mike for the explanation. At least I know what to do now and that it 
can not be solved on the software level.

Best Regards,

  Subject: Re: [wsjt-devel] WSJT-X SSE compliance with Athlon XP CPUs


  The first two executables use QT 5.3 -- which does require SSE2 support.


  It would take a custom build of QT 5.3 to disable SSE2 support and a quick 
search shows that's not a simple/easy thing to do (if even successful at all).


  I'm afraid you really need to bite the bullet and upgrade your computer.  
Your CPU is a Socket 462 and there is no CPU that will go in that with SSE2 
support.  So at a minimum it's a motherboard replacement plus new CPU.

  I have tested the executables:


  message_aggregator.exe and wsjtx.exe crash with the mentioned error message.


  udo_daemon.exe results in a CTD and the app closes.


  Hope you can find the culprit.

    See if you can run any of the executables in the wsjtx\bin directory and 
the report what works and what doesn't work.


    That would help us nail it down.

    Hi there,

    I am running an older Athlon XP 3200+ CPU with Win XP for amateur radio. I 
have installed your software WSJT-X v1.8.0, but when starting it, it produces 
the error message "The application failed to initialize properly (0xc000001d). 
Click on OK to terminate the application".

    By research, I have found out that this message is due to some software 
code that requires SSE / SSE2 in order to start the program.

    Is there a chance that you make changes to your software so that older 
Athlon CPUs that are not SSE compliant will work with WSJT-X? It would be great 
if you do so, as I would like to become active in FT8 which is currently not 
possible.

    If you have a further developed version, I would be happy to test it on my 
system.

    Regards,
    Dr. Christian Keller, DL1GKC
