How do you know if the drivers are up to date?

I have a notebook (HP) with Windows Vista Home Premium 64-bit OS, AMD Turion X 2.

One of my friends asked me to tell him to buy a driver update program would be a good deal?

I looked into the program, it ran on my laptop.  It finds 3 drivers updated on my system.

I tried to update the drivers manually through the applications of system resources.  All three are back

with "the current drivers are more recent.  I went to some of the sites of manufacturers and tried to update

from these websites BEFORE I tried the application update system.  Thus, to the extent where the driver Windows

update process and manufacturing, my drivers are up to date.  However, after re - execute recommendations

program driver again, it still came in saying 3 outdated drivers?  current dates for the pilot were correct and the

update request, pointed out that 'HE' pilot has had more recent dates (versions).  Yes, whats up with this?

If the drivers are supposed to be newer Windows and the manufacturer, how these programs of Driver (Genius-Detective)

come with newer drivers?

Please give

Thank you

I ran into the same thing with all those so-called 'PILOT UPDATERS'. They are pilot BSers, they love clipping who do not use what came with their machines, I call it "SUCKER SOFTWARE. Click START, type MANAGER of DEVICES' until it is, I get to devi and this is on my Vista, at the top of the search list and click it to open the Device Manager and of course click on continue, so it opens. Then go to one of the devices listed in the list and click on the + to open the list, the most complete and RIGHT click ON them and click "Update DRIVER SOFTWARE".  Where is it, it's simple follow the instructions if there is an update or forget it if it says you have later. Card mother knows best. Or be adventurous and go through you 'HELP AND SUPPORT' to find the update for your PC sites.

Good luck

  • Error code 19 for my ROM... The drivers are up to date... How can I fix it? Thank you...

    I get the error code 19... My drivers are up to date... How to fix this?

    Hello

    19 code means there is a driver conflict such as two devices attempt to use the same resources.

    Please make all underneath the same if you've done it before as it's often the total of the process which
    solves the problem.

    Try this - Panel - Device Manager - CD/DVD - double click on the device - driver tab.
    Click on update drivers (this will probably do nothing) - RIGHT click ON the drive - uninstall.
    RESTART this will refresh the default driver stack. Even if the reader does not appear to continue
    below.

    Normally the above will solve this problem otherwise working your way down through them, even if you did
    them before.

  • How do you know if the hard disk controller is damaged or it does not work?

    Hello

    I would like to know how you can know if the hard disk controller is defect.  is there some tools for it or a way to test it.

    I have thouthg my self for a solution like this;

    -If I take the hard drive that is not working out pc and attach it to the speaker and the speaker set on a PC then I wil first hear the rotation of your drive hard so that when the PC wil recognizes the external hard drive as a hard disk and then the controller is OK, otherwise it means that the controller is damaged.

    . I know mechanical problems with a hard disk, they do some sounds when they turn.

    is the way I think it is the right way to know or there is much better way to find out if there is a problem with the hard disk controller.

    Thank you

    Johan

    Small circuit board is an interface for cables that sorts what is happening in the place where. It holds the drive buffer and it tells the computer what it is, i.e. drive, speed, brand, model, size etc.

    If you get an error of hard disk controller, it's a motherboard problem and there is no way to fix it.

    Hard drives fail for two reasons...

    1. The platters inside are deteriorating to the point where they are no more able to maintain the structure of the sector/cluster.
    2. The spindle motor breaks down.

    The part of a disk hard less likely to fail is the interface card, unless he is accidentally cut on the computer case or other metallic surface. If this short, you will know that the smoke resulting hard disk is acrid beggars belief. It is almost the only case where the interface will fail.

    Even when a hard drive is subjected to temperatures beyond its limits, the spindle motor bearings will fail way before anything else, that's why the vast majority of the disk hard total fails is obvious because there is no vibration of the engine.

    If a hard drive starts to cause problems, it is best to replace it because it will always get worse over time...

  • How do you know if the page is made after forward

    Hi all

    I have a first page, after clicking on a button, it is transferred to a second page.

    Once on this second page presents after forward, I want to show this message

    throw new OAException("Trace Created successfuly",OAException.CONFIRMATION);
    

    So I need to put it in the process request

    But I don't want to show this message each time that this second page is rendered, I want to just show him when he is first shown after the verse forward. So, I need to put a condition before this line of code.

    What is this condition? I want to say is possible to know if the last event is an attacker?

    Thank you for your help

    Kind regards

    Afaf

    You can pass an extra parameter from the first page to the second page, and based on the value of this parameter, you can view this message.

    Or,

    You can store all the values of session from the first page, then according to the value of the message. Before displaying the message, reset the session value.

    It will be useful.

    See you soon
