OptiPlex 3010 CPU Misreporting

Hello,

I've just upgraded my CPU from a Celeron G1610T to a Core i3 3240T. For some reason the CPU reports correctly in BIOS but under Windows 10 it is still reported as the G1610T. The computer boots and works perfectly well (I'm typing this on it now). Any ideas?

The machine has the standard H61 3010 motherboard with recently updated BIOS.

Are you going to have to reinstall Windows when going from a Celeron to a Core i3 CPU ..????

BTW: Do you have the latest chipset drivers for Win 10 installed?

I'd try updating the drivers before considering a re-installation...
