Apparently, the problem would be just dependent on the underlying<br>
hardware and not the operating system and, as suggested there, could<br>
be related to unsupported CPU instructions.<br>
<br>
This has been more recently suggested here too:<br>

I am trying to learn Smalltalk and the book "Deep into Pharo"<br>
apparently requires a minimum Pharo version of at least 2.0.<br>
<br>
Could someone provide a binary download of the current version of<br>
Pharo VM for Windows without SSE2 support?<br>
<br>
If that's not possible, what would be the simplest way to build the VM<br>
in Windows without SSE2 support?<br>
<br>
<br>
Operating systems tested on the problematic machine:<br>
<br>
Windows XP Home Edition Service Pack 3<br>
<br>
Knoppix 7.0 Linux Kernel 3.4.9 (LiveCD)<br>
<br>
<br>
Last versions that worked:<br>
<br>
Pharo-1.2.1-OneClick.zip<br>
Squeak-4.4-All-in-One.zip<br>
<br>
<br>
Next versions no longer work:<br>
<br>
Pharo-1.3-OneClick.zip<br>
Squeak-4.5-All-in-One.zip<br>
<br>
<br>
<br>
Result in Windows XP:<br>
<br>
Brings up the Error Report dialog box (with the 'Send Error Report' button)<br>
I have attached a Dr. Watson report of the error both for Pharo and Squeak.<br>
<br>
<br>
Result in Knoppix:<br>
<br>
Running script 'Pharo.sh' or 'Squeak.sh' from a terminal just returns<br>
'Illegal Instruction'<br>
