I’m trying to install Synfig on Windows XP sp3 professional (Pentium 4M 1.8 ghz) I’ve tried both 32 bit and 32 bit portable, but both return the error “The procedure entry point GetActiveProcessorCount could not be located in the dynamic link library KERNEL32.dll.”  
Is there something I could do to get it working? I’ve read that Synfig does support Windows XP.

The system requirements on [synfig.org](http://synfig.org) are Windows 7 or above, Windows XP is ancient now.
