ok im going through the stage of updating every driver on my computer (just got a Geforce FX5200 ultra with latest drivers and want everything else to be latest, as you do :erm: ). anyway i remember that either on here or on .com at some point in time someone posted a URL taht had some thing that would scan your computer and tell you what drivers you needed. (i dont mean windows update :rolleyes: ). anyway does anyone have a link to a website that does that or was it a figment of my imagination?

:shrug:

catchup.cnet.com but they've stopped it best thing to do is a full clean install i.e format that way you'll have not left over drivers

There's also Oil Change (http://www.mcafee.com/myapps/oco/default.asp), but I've never used it.

What PC is it?, what mobo is it? Some have various update utilities, MSI are good.
