SSE2 instructino set on AMD

Hi

I have AMD Athlon XP 1600 processor in my laptop. I am trying to install Adobe Priemer. When I try to install it I get the error that my processor doesn't support SSE2 instruction set. Is there anyway to install this program. A fix or am i just screwed.

If you processor doesn't support it, then you most likely won't be able to get it.

Go here.
That is a utility off of AMDs website that will tell you what instruction sets are currently programmed into your cpu, just to be sure Adobe isn't wrong.

The Athlon 64's and newer support SSE2. The XP's only had SSE1.
