Device drivers are without doubt some of the most important programs
running on your PC. If any of them have bugs then this can lead to all
kinds of problems: poor performance, unexpected crashes, spontaneous
reboots, lengthy shutdowns, and a whole lot more. It pays to keep your
drivers up-to-date, then, and Uniblue DriverScanner 2012 can help you do
this quickly and with the minimum of fuss.
To give your PC this valuable health check, just launch the program
and click Start Scan. Uniblue DriverScanner 2012 will compile a list of
your installed drivers and their version number, compare these with its
own database of the latest versions, and let you know which drivers have
updates available.
That's just the start, though. If the program has found updates then
it'll download them all at a click (and in parallel, for the best
performance). You'll be warned about drivers that may be risky to
install, perhaps causing system instability. But if everything looks
good then you can install each update in turn with another click.
Of course driver updates can sometimes cause problems, too - you
might download a version that introduces a new bug, for instance. But
Uniblue have thought of that, too. DriverScanner 2012 creates a restore
point every time it installs a new driver, and so if you do experience
any issues then they're easily fixed: just click the Manage tab, choose
the appropriate Restore tab and your system will be returned to its
previous state. Mark that driver as one to ignore and the program won't
try to download it again, which means you'll be safe until a new, and
hopefully fixed version appears.
