Well, there's your problem right there. You haven't told us anything
about your machine, but if the processor isn't being correctly
identified you know something you installed is wrong. Rollback or
uninstall all the driver updates you did. If you have an OEM machine
(Dell, HP, Sony, etc.) you should only be getting drivers from them.
If you can't figure out what drivers you installed, then uninstall them
all and start over, one driver at a time. You might try a System Restore
to before you went on this driver installing spree but I'm not hopeful
that will solve the issue. However, it couldn't hurt and will be less
trouble than doing a clean install. Back up your data first in any case.
In the future, when you have a working system it's best practice to
install one thing at a time and test after each change. That way you
don't wind up with a mess and not knowing which action you did is the
culprit.
