Question Unsupported processor?

[BoomerD]

Windows 10, 22H2, 19045.3324
I was attempting to update the Windows install via Windows update to 19045.3393 It includes a few new "features' that I thought might be helpful.

Downloaded fine, went through the install process just fine...rebooted...got a blue screen about an "unsupported processor."



(not my pic, stolen from the internet)
The system rebooted...got the blue screen again...and again, then it went into repair mode and back to v.3324.

I've seen similar error messages with W11, but not W10.

FWIW, this machine has been running just fine (well...no Windows errors...the occasional little "oh shit" here and there) since I built it back in January.

Sorry, unknown intern. Looks like it wasn't your fault at all.

It's MSI's fault!

that says Windows 11 and update KB5029351. I have W10 and update KB5029331...although, apparently, according to the Microsoft Feedback panel, the two issues are the same.

The Windows Update is still causing issues?

So intel is to blame, not motherboard makers? I realize that Intel created the microcode, but shouldn't motherboard makers test firmware they release? Ridiculous.
