You MUST read and complete the steps from the checklist below, by placing
an x into each [ ] (so that it shows '[x]', NOT '[ x]' or '[x ]'), BEFORE
clicking on 'Submit new issue'.
Failure to perform these steps, WHICH ARE ONLY THERE TO HELP YOU, will
usually result in your issue being dismissed without notice.
If you are reporting an issue when trying to run Rufus, or when trying to
boot a media created by Rufus, you MUST provide a log, period. Please do
not assume that the developer(s) will be able to "guess" the specifics of
your environment, what image you used, what type of media you used it with
or the many many other critical parameters that the log provides data for.
To investigate an issue, a log from Rufus is ALWAYS required.
If you still choose not to provide a log when reporting a problem, you
agree that your issue will be closed without any further investigation.
YOU HAVE BEEN WARNED.

Checklist
[x] I have been made aware that if my problem can be summarized as "I've created or tried to create a media using Rufus, and ...", and I am not including a log, this issue will be summarily closed.
[x] I performed a search in the issue tracker for similar issues using keywords relevant to my problem, such as the error message I got from the log.
[x] I clicked the 'Log' button (🗒️) or pressed Ctrl-L in Rufus, or used DebugView, and copy/pasted the log into the section that says <FULL LOG> below.
[x] The log I am copying is the FULL log, starting with the line Rufus version: x.y.z - I have NOT removed any part of it.
Additionally (if applicable):
[ ] I ran a bad blocks check, by clicking Show advanced format options then Check device for bad blocks, and confirmed that my USB is not defective.
[ ] I also tried one or more of the following:
[ ] Using a different USB drive.
[ ] Plugging the USB into a different port.
[ ] Running Rufus on a different computer.
[ ] If using an image, I clicked on the (✓) button to compute the MD5, SHA1 and SHA256 checksums, which are therefore present in the log I copied. I confirmed, by performing an internet search, that these values match the ones from the official image.
Issue description
I just created a Windows 11 24H2 installer which works absolutely flawlessly on a Sandy Bridge laptop, but on an AMD Phenom II x6 1045T the installer is complaining about the cpu not supporting SSE 4.2. This is entirely correct, but to my understanding 24H2 only requires the POPCNT instruction of the SSE 4.2 instruction set, which has been supported on AMD cpu's since 2007. Would it be possible for Rufus to create an install wrapper that checks specifically for the POPCNT instruction rather than the entire SSE 4.2 instruction set?
