Question Computer is Unable to Update System and Other Software

[diethaterade]

My system cannot perform any system updates and will pretend to install updates but none of them will go through.
It also cannot update software such as GPU updates and other software. Also not sure if this is related but the internet ICON looks like I don't have network connection but I do.
This has been going on for a while, and may be related to when I upgraded CPU's both in the same family and socket on my MOBO for AMD.

Any help or suggestions would be great! I just don't want to go through the trouble of clean installing Windows 7 if there is a quick fix to this!

Don’t bother Windows 7 isn’t going to get updates pretty soon anyway

If you didn’t reinstall windows when you upgraded your processors that’s probably the issue so you’re stuck with an install anyway and I would install windows 10 I do not recommend Windows 7 for anything or anybody under any conditions

Gotcha, so you have to fresh install if windows if you do any sort of processor change?
