When I try to download the driver for Mobile Sempron (for Windows XP Professional) I actually get an Athlon64 driver. I think there must be an error on the driver download page.

No errors there.
Mobile Athlon 64 and Mobile Sempron processors are based on the same architecture and hence they can use exactly the same driver /wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' />

QUOTEThe AMD CPU Info program says there is no 64 bit support on my processor (Mobile Sempron 2800+). 64-bit capability is disabled on current Mobile Sempron models as they're targetted at the value segment - given the current number of available 64-bit applications, 64-bit capability is not yet required for that segment.
They're still based off the Athlon 64's architecture...just without 64-bit capability /wink.gif' border='0' style='vertical-align:middle' alt='wink.gif' /> QUOTEI thought Sempron was based on AthlonXP? That is only true for Socket A (462) Desktop parts.
ALLMobile Semprons as well as the 754-pin Desktop models are based off the Athlon 64's architecture.
