Perhaps also the compiler options that caused the Intel/AMD problem aren\'t used. The patch really only applied to slab and sulphur models. ID: 25667 · Reply Quote

The newer version of the compiler does recognise AMD CPUs correctly, and hence the patch is irrelevant for those versions. I'm a volunteer and my views are my own.
