Thanks Andrew,
Yes, I am familiar with that thread (sorry, I've tried so many things
over the past month that it was hard for me to remember everything
that I've investigated). I believe it was in regards to what instruction
Xv was using to move data to the video. Unfortunately, I verified that my
Nehemiah is being detected correctly and that the SSE instruction
is being used to move the data (and its performance is on-par with
what others have posted).
I'll doublecheck the thread again, though. Perhaps I missed something.
Also, I will have (unlimited) access to the original Nehemiah system I
built for about the next 4 days. Hopefully I can nail down exactly what the
difference is.
Mik
