Do you have a spare HDD on which you could install fresh Windows to check whether GPU-Z works on a new install on the same system?
As a matter of fact I do, and I just finished prepping it for the installation of the W10 1709 ISO I d/l'ed yesterday. The intent is to use my old mobo/cpu/dram/gpu as a video card test bench but testing GPU-Z is certainly possible, too.
It'll take a few hours to get everything ready, however, as I need to rig something up to support the mobo, etc., as I don't have a spare case nor really want to use one.
^ This. Although, I still recommend a fresh install anyway as 1709 was a major update and fresh installs are historically more stable and less problematic.
That's a bit more work and risk than I am willing to take on to track down this particular problem. Also, W10 doesn't really allow you to fully roll back updates, even when you had the foresight to use system restore. I do run a backup to an external HDD every night, but I only save the last 3 images and, well, 1709 came out a few months ago so that image is long gone (I also saved the original image from when I got the computer - but that one is from January of this year so a bit too old to be useful).
EDIT - I thought my reply didn't post so posted another and the forum decided to edit this one... so, something is borked with the forum, too...
