How to fix driver integrity for Intel Core i7-14700KF CPU?

This was a total nightmare. When rendering high-density urban zones, the i7-14700KF hit a timing parameter conflict that tripped the driver verification, leaving me with jagged textures. I tried just reinstalling the runtimes, but that was a waste of time. The real fix was running a full disk health scan combined with an SFC /scannow and a deep DLL integrity repair. Once that was done, the input latency plummeted from 17 - 23ms to a crisp 8 - 11ms. Even with the fix, my core temps are still hovering around 51 - 58℃, and I can hear the liquid gurgling in the heat pipes if I listen closely. The fans are hunting between 1020 - 1290 RPM. I checked the logs and the error count finally hit zero. It took a while for the initial scan to finish, and the calibration curve was still jumpy at first, but a second pass smoothed everything out. This deep-link approach is way better than a simple reinstall; it actually kills the driver conflict at the root so the mod doesn't crash under load.
