Hey everyone, I'm having trouble with my old Compax using a 945gct-hm motherboard. I've got a GTX 550 Ti installed and it's running fine, but updating the driver is a nightmare. Windows can't detect the CPU, but the GPU part still shows up. The BIOS lets me pick between onboard, PCI, or PCI-E, but it always reverts to PCI. After updating the BIOS to version 5.25, the problem persists. Any tips would be super helpful!

CPU-Z is designed specifically for CPUs; you should use GPU-Z instead. Regarding the operating system, Windows 7 is no longer supported by Microsoft, so you must upgrade to Windows 10.
