Comment (by mcs):

 Replying to [comment:15 gk]:
 > Hm. I wonder how we could test that. mcs/brade do you have by chance a
 really old computer with Windows running?

 Unfortunately, the oldest one we have uses a Pentium 4 processor (which
 was one of the first to include SSE2). I did boot it up and run the
 installer from comment:14 and it installed and ran fine (the OS is Windows
 XP, so I do not boot it up very often).
