Hey all,
i want to determine if a CPU supports MMX technology. Therefore i use the assembler instruction CPUID and check for MMX technology bit. This works well for pentium CPU's. But on 486-CPU's there is no CPUID instruction. How can i determine either CPU type or the existance of CPUID instruction?
Thanks in advance
