I find many things v odd ....

Bob said that K62 doesnt' support ppro optimization (Dann suggested the same
too.) This is why I can't use any crafty ver 17.x altho Bob believes that "some"
versions works. (I would think that Bob is a creature of habit :), eg compile
pgms with certain options (eg, ppro optimization)in a consistent manner.
Unfortunately, since there aren't any notes saying which version isn't PPRO
optimized, I had to DL many many many diff 17.x versions to randomly try. Sadly,
all gave me illegal program instructions error. :(

According to Phalanx's page (bench section), K63 could run Phalanx with PPro
optimization. But what I know is K63 is just K62 with with 256k full speed
cache. So what's going on here? Can anyone confirm that K62 won't run PPro
optimized code?

Another thing. There must be millions with K62 wanting to run Crafty under
windows. I read many message boards, yet, I have never seen once anyone saying
that he can't run Crafty. Either that or all K62 owners have compilers and
compile their own Crafty.

Well, I would appreciate it if anyone can point me to a K62 compatible latest
Crafty exe.

Tnx u.
