How to get Q9550 CPU drivers?

I am running XP PRO 64BIT, and the drivers for the Q9550 show up as Intel Processor in the Computer Management area, there are 4 of them. I have tried uninstalling them, but they never reinstall as Q9550.

In System properties, it shows up as Intel Pentium III XEON Processor.

Any idea how I can fix it, so it displays the correct drivers?
 
Consider re-installing windows. Something is causing this problem, it's not normal to need to install something for the processor to be properly detected.
 
That shouldn't matter. I swapped an E6300 for a Q9550 on the same windows install and it worked perfectly from the first boot up.
 
I was going to say this would be a bios issue not a windows issue, windows should just display the processor as your motherboard sees it. So you got your issue fixed?
