I prefer to use a temporary email address for something like this as you only need to receive the email to activate the account. To allow the program to update drivers you need to register for a free account at DriverMax.
Driver restore software install#
Here’s a selection to have a look at.ĭriverMax is primarily a tool to scan your system for outdated drivers and then download and install the most up to date ones for you. Thankfully there are some free tools around that can backup and then restore your system drivers for you. Some drivers such as display drivers from the likes of NVIDIA are very large in size (200MB+) and you’ll have to wait for them to download and then install. You’ll have to run third party software to identify the hardware components and search the manufacturer websites for the correct drivers. It’s even worse if the computer belongs to someone else and they don’t have any idea what is on their computer, or even what a driver is sometimes. That’s why I always keep the 3DPNet integrated drivers in my USB toolkit just in case. For example, if you need a third party network driver to get on the internet which isn’t recognized by Windows, then you can’t go online to get the latest drivers for other hardware until the network driver is installed. Although a lot of drivers will get picked up automatically by Windows, there could still be many left over that are important for the associated devices to function properly. I know many of us find it a hassle to search for drivers after formatting a computer.
