Thank you very much for taking the time to reach the Intel Communities Team, seawolf21. I will do my best to assist you further.

When the Brand String test fails, it is basically that the processor's name was not recognized by the Intel® Processor Diagnostics Tool. Please refer to the https://www.intel.com/content/dam/support/us/en/documents/processors/sb/theintelprocessordiagnostictoolinwindowsuserguider.pdf Intel® Processor Diagnostic Tool User Guide page 20.This does not mean that your processor is defective. In order to complete the test on the IPDT go Tools > Stop Testing On Fail > Off.Can you please provide us the model of your processor and motherboard?Antony S.

Hello! I have the same isue. But also i have problem with temperature monitor. i need to disable both of them in 'tools' before run the test.

pentium d945

asus p5ld2

monitoring of the temperature works in bios and third party software developer on Windows 10, but it does not with genuine intel processor utility)))

also i have changed all settings in bios that required utility from help paper

actualy i have not much of them:

max cpuid value - disabled

thermal monitor - enabled

c1 control - enabled

speed step - disabled

microcode updation - enabled

execute disable bit - enabled

any suggestions???

After install IPDT in folder "BrandString_LocalConfig.xml" change name for core 2 duo processor. Corect name is -CoreStringParts = "Intel(R)|Core(TM)2|CPU|@"

Worked perfectly for me. Thank you.

Specifications regarding all components are attached below in PDF format.

It doesn't start on the first attempt in the morning pressing the power key on the CPU (Except the processor fan and other things like SMPS CPU light turn on). The processor turns on after pressing the restart key a few times. But in the daytime, it doesn't happen at all. 

Is it a processor issue or the CPU power switch or due to dust it happened?

You can ignore this error on a processor from 2008.

This thread is more than two years old.

For your processor E7200, it is going to fail on Brand String test as your processor is simply too old.

Ignore the error - there is nothing wrong.
