Windows xp sp 2

My processor is giving me errors in device manager. It tells me the driver
is either missing or corrupt. Didnt know if I could rollback or
uninstall....or what I need to do. Also, with the processor not working
properly, would that prevent me from getting on internet?

Thanks for the help in advance....
 
Try uninstall,then restart pc,xp will reinstall on restart.Also,to chk
P4,download
the processor ID utility from intel/downloads/processor downloads.

Have you looked at the Warning and Error Reports in the System and
Application logs in Event Viewer?

Please post copies of all Error and Warning Reports appearing in
the System and Application logs in Event Viewer for the last boot. No
Information Reports or Duplicates please. Indicate which also appear in
a previous boot.

You can access Event Viewer by selecting Start, Control Panel,
Administrative Tools, and Event Viewer. When researching the meaning
of the error, information regarding Event ID, Source and Description
are important.

Part of the Description of the error will include a link, which you
should double click for further information. You can copy using copy
and paste. Often the link will, however, say there is no further
information.

A tip for posting copies of Error Reports! Run Event Viewer and double
click on the error you want to copy. In the window, which appears is a
button resembling two pages. Click the button and close Event
Viewer.Now start your message (email) and do a paste into the body of
the message. Make sure this is the first paste after exiting from
Event Viewer.

Can you copy the text from the error messages, exactly, and post them ?

The more info you give, the more answer we give.

Did you upgrade or install a new CPU? Is the CPU a type
supported by the mobo with the current BIOS?

If you replaced the CPU, for instance going from a Celeron
478 to a P4 478 you might need to upgrade the BIOS so the
CPU is properly recognized.
