The socket A Sempron 3000+ *is* a Barton.
I don't think so it a socket 745 or something... Semptron with some 64
bits instructions but not as much like the xp64 does.
Perhaps you'd like to compare the Sempron to other AMD processors.

What was the n/o of he's CPU?
This was taken from the astra32 program.
here's what looks like a Barton xp2600 And all of it's instructions.
Would you mind sending the info of the semptron and somebody else the
info of the xp64 939 Venice core.
