program for updating drivers?
is there a program that would say scan your computer and then search the sites for new drivers for you? i dont want to install the wrong drivers, but i want to be up to date. i think microsoft does this when you scan for updates but i dont know how thorough it is. i have bigfix on my computer and used to get driver updates, if i remember right, but dont anymore. i know they dont update all that often but when they do i want to know.

Seems like there was some type of service that did this. BUT, keep in mind that newer isn't always better...Or, if it aein't broke don't fix it..
Might just bookmark your video card etc maker's site and read trough them every now and then. I'd trust this method over some service or software checking for me. |

After they check your system for updates, if you scroll down, there will be a button that says "Driver Updates". If there are any, download them
