Program needed for P3
 
Hello everyone,

I have a factoring program (yafu) in my personal laptop and it works well. But how can I find a program maybe also yafu to work on Pentium 3 CPU and ME Windows.

Thanks in advance:smile:

You mean it doesn't work at all, or just works slowly? What specifically are you trying to do? I assume siqs, but maybe also ecm or p+/-1? What number are you trying to factor?

If you're planning to use yafu for SIQS, msieve is probably faster than yafu on P3s (based on my own results on a slow P4).

Well I don't what you like to choose but maybe maximum 100 digit RSA number.

@bsquared: I mean it does not work at all it says that you need a better windows edition LOL maybe there is another version for such old stuff.

@10metreh: I tried msieve on my Vista laptop but when I open it it just flashes the command window and disappear I don't know why?! When I tried it on that old computer it says it's missing some files and can't open it. By the way I install it from here: [url]http://sourceforge.net/projects/msieve/[/url]

You need to run it from the command prompt. I'm on XP and I don't know exactly how the command prompt changed in Vista (I think it did), and I don't know exactly how ME works either. I think you have to open the start menu, click "Run", type in "cmd" and then click OK, navigate to the folder you put msieve in by typing in "cd "<the_path>"" and then Enter, and then run msieve by typing in "msieve -v <the_number>" and then Enter.

Thanking your replies

try the same instructions and hopefully they should work reasonably well

Thanks alot henryzz for your help I tried you way. What I wrote in the command was "cd"C:\"" then it says bad command I tried also "cd"C:\msieve143.exe"" but it still the same :( what is my mistake?

How ever the default destination for the Command is the Desktop so I tries to write "msieve143.exe" and I put the file in the Desktop. Then a window poped up saying that the file "KERNEL.32.EXE" is missing :(
Thanks for your replies

You need a space between cd and the path.

I'm so sorry I edited this before you post I added this:

Anyway I tried to write as you said
"cd" C:\msieve143.exe""
and also
"cd "C:\msieve143.exe""
But still the same
