MMX & SSE support

Does VS support the MMX and SSE instructions sets? If so, is this automatic or is a command line parameter required to tell VS to use those instructions? Thanks

I don't think the MMX instructions are used anymore, UVS now requires a P3 or later, which introduced SSE. SSE2 is supported as well, but SSE3 is not yet, AFAIK. HT is also supported.

There are no command-line switches required to specify the processor type or special instructions to use.
