Source to detect which intel chip is in a computer - Detects the processor for sure, but does it by checking for invalid opcodes.

(Translation: Whatever happens (bad or good) when you use this stuff, it
ain't my fault. Use at own risk, no nutritional value, prolonged exposure
may lead to cerebral herpes, etc...etc...etc...).
Here's a quick little program to determine what CPU you've got, along with
all the source code.
used Borland Pascal 7 and Tasm 3.2 to create all this. It SHOULD work on
TP7, but probably won't on TP6 or less (I used some null-terminated strings).
If you've got any Komments, Kwestions, Koncerns, or any other K-words (as one
of my high school physics teachers used to put it), you can get in touch with
me as follows:
