[QUOTE="S3cur1ty 3nthu5145t, post: 639653, member: 62423"] One does not need one of these utilities for this. It is not difficult to open device manager, look at your current version, and check the manufacturer's website. This is what I do, and when needed, I install manually not relying on any application. Latest drivers are not always better, some will have bugs/issues while the current one you have will be stable and mature. It is a good practice to research comments on those in a rush to install them and finding those issues first hand, to avoid those type pit falls. [/QUOTE]
