Is it possible to scan the computer for outdated drivers?  

I am using Windows 7 in my Acer Aspire 5250 lap-top. Is there a programme that I can use to scan the computer to find out what drivers need updating?

Thank you,

I take it your Computer is working well ? .... If that is the case no need or reason to update Drivers ..


Not always the newest Version of a Driver is the best ...


The Manufacturer of your Computer might have newer Versions of your Drivers ...

Does this apply to, Windows drivers and the manufacturers drivers both? The computer is working well.

Regards,

Yes Windows Drivers are never the latest Versions ... I have seen many times people updating Drivers which have caused problems ..

Someone wiser than me told me "If it ain't broke don't fix it!"
THW

Don't download or use any software that declares the ability to scan all your drivers and update all your drivers. Far wiser techs than I gave me this advice long ago, and I follow it.

OK, I just changed driver update settings (attachment). Please confirm this is good.

Yep

Could you also tell me how I can make an attachment like mine above, appear as a link in my post, instead of this gaudy full page display?
