I have problems with my laptop motherboard, if CPU drivers loading computer reboots. It's works fine without CPU Drivers. I've tried it with Win XP removing CPU.inf but how I can remove ALL CPU related drivers from Windows 7?
Tried with DISM but it says: "Error - The specified driver cannot be removed. Removing a default driver package is not supported.". I've also tried removing registry entries but it always reboots..
Windows 7 won't work without CPU drivers. There must be something else wrong.
VMware does not install a full driver set, it`s not a true test.
Did the laptop originally come with Windows 7 ?
Please post a link to the exact model.
Well, VMWARE emulates a CPU, it's not physical CPU. Removing the CPU driver forever from a test Windows 7 System causes it to stop booting and hang on the startup logo.

My laptop model is Fujitsu Lifebook AH512. It contains i3-2328M processor (I've tried also other cpu) and laptop comed with Windows 7 / Windows 8.
Symptom is that:
When laptop boot any os install media (Windows, Linux etc.) system reboots usually in bootloader (in syslinux but not windows).
Memtest passed ok etc. (Maybe faulty motherboard?)
I've installed Windows XP successfully when I removed cpu.inf file before driver install part on XP setup. It works well without it (only wake from sleep not work). But I want newer OS because XP is outdated..
EDIT: Tested reinstall CPU Driver on XP after loading IntelPPM.sys computer reboots..
