The only sources besides .tar.gz or .src.rpm are apparently msvc-src.zip. IIRC, latest MSVC (not that I tried) enables SSE2 by default these days (though maybe you can disable that??). Presumably they think everyone has a new enough machine since Pentium 4 (2000) and Athlon64 (2003). What cpu are you using: PIII? Athlon XP? (Even antiX Mepis Linux 13.x says this: "32-bit edition uses older Flash for PII/PIII processors".)
