driver samples don't build

I have windows 10, vs2019, the latest WDK and SDK.

I can't get the windows driver samples to build. The samples were downloaded today and are dated late March

PLX9x5x gives the following

Severity Code Description Project File Line Suppression State

the pcidrv sample gives the following

CPU-Z 1.84.0 x64 Error Code

After downloading the newest version of CPU-Z, 1.84.0 x64, I am greeted with an error code message everytime I attempt to start the program 0x241(577). After bringing up the log it does load the program but the mainboard, memory, SPD, and graphics sections are completely empty and greyed out. Bench function appears to work fine.

I am on W7 SP1 x64 with ZERO updates or Direct X/.Net Framework add ons installed. I would appreciate advice on where my computer is falling short. The log is posted below.

Downloaded MS Visual C++, need help/pointers

Don't work? Getting an error or what?

Funny thing though, under C# it's F6 to build solution, in vb it's ctrl+shift+b, I don't even see ctrl+f5 listed, it works though. It might again be different in C++. Either way, the build and debug menus should have the options, at least you should have a debug build in your project directory. Do a search for a executable in the projects folder.
