I would add that on a couple of occasions when I have needed help in dealing 
with cabinet files I have contacted the Driver Agent support team and they have 
been most helpful.

Thanks for your input.

  Hi Pete.

  I use Driver Agent myself, I have to say, its quite good at finding those odd 
hard to get drivers for those miscellaneous components in laptops for example.  
For instance, where does one download the Alps GlidePad driver, the Ricoh multi 
card reader etc etc.  Just a couple of the odd components I've had innumerable 
difficulties locating drivers for over the years with the many laptops I've 
owned and used.  Also, these services put all the drivers in the one place, and 
more often than not have more up-to-date drivers than the laptop manufacturers 
provide or make available for download.

  Horses for courses as the saying goes, but although Driver Agent occasionally 
gets it wrong, more often I've had accurate results on each computer scan.

  All the best, Ibrahim.

    Thanks for that Steve. There is not much point in paying for something if 
it simply causes more hastle.

      Hi Eleanor and Peter,

       

      I am here.

       

      At the time, I believe I recommended Driver Genius.  The problem with all 
these things however, I have discovered, is that they misidentify drivers.  I 
have found that on a test machine I have here, which has a SoundBlaster Live 
5.1 in it, it kept referring me to SoundBlaster Audigy drivers, which won't 
install, because they don't see the hardware.  But it isn't only Creative they 
had trouble with.

       

      So now, I do it all myself.

       

      All the best

       

      Steve

      Why not e-mail Steve and ask him.  If you do not have his e-mail address 
he is at computer room services.

        Windows XP Home and JAWS

         

        I used Driver Agent to check drivers etc. The subscription has now rung 
out and I remember that another program was recommended by Steve Nutt.

         

        I did not make a note - I was not expecting to use this type of 
software again.

         

        Any suggestions or comments please.

         

        Peter Bentley
