[QUOTE="JakeXPMan, post: 319431, member: 29270"] Hey got a question about the dreaded UPDATING DRIVERS :rolleyes: I am interested in "SlimDrivers", I installed this program a while back but never used it just ran a scan, found 9 drivers with newer upgrades. Then today Driver Booster installed because I used my ASC Pro (AutoUpdate) function (I turned it on to see it work) so it installed Driver Booster and updated my IObit-Uninstaller. Well anyway the Driver Booster "2" found 10 upgrades, pretty similar to SD. Here's Driver Boosters upgrade finds, 2-Keyboards 2-System Devices 3-IDE ATA/ATAPI 1-Sound, video game controller 1-Network adapter 1-Modem IS ANY OF THIS MEANINGFUL TO UPGRADE? drivers is something i never touch, maybe thats why i never seen a BSOD yet lol.
