Speccy Hanging On CPU Detection

[LukeM23]

Hello,

I have an i5-4690 CPU and Speccy keeps hanging (specifically it gets stuck in a loading loop) while trying to detect the CPU category. I have tried uninstalling and reinstalling the program several times and it will only work very sparingly, but most of the time the above error occurs. Has anyone else encountered this error and know of a solution?

Thank you for the suggestion, but this program actually crashed my computer and forced it to restart while attempting to ID my CPU. Got a Windows 8 blue screen message saying something about a DRIVER_IDENTIFIER_SOMETHING error.

Very strange , never had an issue with those apps.
