Not impossible ;) Suppliers think end users are dumb until end users work
out it's the suppliers that are dumb :)

I confirm that XP chips aren't supported in smp configs by AMD. I can't of
the top of my head give URLs to confirm what I've just said, but I'l
rummage

in MP configs (unsurprisingly :))
