Your processor is currently operating with fewer cores than its official specifications. It is running with 8 cores, while this CPU normally supports 16 cores.
This limitation reduces performance and may indicate a configuration issue.
This situation can happen when Windows is set to limit the number of active cores, when BIOS settings are not at their defaults, or when a recent change has disabled certain CPU features. In rare cases, a BIOS update may be required for the system to properly detect the full capabilities of the processor.
We recommend checking Windows’ advanced boot options (msconfig) to ensure all cores are enabled. You should also load the default settings in your BIOS to restore proper CPU configuration.
This PC encountered 1 unexpected crash(es) (BSOD, blue screen) in the 30 days before this validation, the most recent on 2026-09-27.
Crashes like these are often caused by a faulty driver, unstable overclocking or memory settings, overheating, or failing hardware.
Make sure Windows and your drivers are up to date. If the PC is overclocked, try returning to stock settings. The BSOD Details button in the Software section lists each crash.
Windows reports 1 device(s) that are not working correctly. A device in this state is either unavailable or running in a degraded mode, and Windows will keep retrying it at every boot.
This usually comes from a driver that failed to load or was stopped after an error: a bad or outdated driver, a device that is not seated properly, or a component that is starting to fail.
Open the Device Manager to see which devices are flagged, then reinstall or update their drivers from the manufacturer's website. If a device keeps failing after a clean driver install, reseat it and test it on another port or slot. The Drivers button in the Software section lists every affected device.
