1.11 AMD Athlon Issue

OK -- Just trying to confirm something. I've seen some posts of other AMD Athlon users that could not get 1.11 to work. I'm just trying to assess whether this is a problem generic to all Athlons or perhaps some unrelated problem.

If you own a PC with an AMD Athlon chipset, feel free to download either the Linux or Windows pSX version 1.11 and try to get it running. Please use your best debugging skills to try to run it before posting.

In Windows, 1.11 just died for me. I get a Sigkill in Linux. However, the 1.10 Windows version ran just fine for me in Windows, and I was able to get it to run with just a little fiddling through Wine in Linux.

If you have an Athlon and can get 1.11 working, please pass along any hints you may have for the rest of us. If you cannot get it to run, feel free to also post, perhaps sending along some PC specs.

(I'm away from my home PC right now -- I'll add PC specs later)

Good luck!
