    Will new hard drive solve problems


    I have Windows 7 Home Premium SP1 on my PC. Lately I notice problems with finding drivers. Will it help to install new hard drive and reinstall Windows 7? I still have the disc but will get professional help if others think it will help. I am not interested in windows 10 as a remedy

    hi
    Simplistic answer is No.....
    However you didnt actually mention which drivers
    W7 windows update would have updated what it could find, (if you have not changed the default)
    You wont get any more from Intel, latest likely to be dated around 2016
    Gigabyte might still be updating, wouldn't bank on it

    note MS base drivers tend to be dated 2006... yes 2006

Just recently I replaced my Playstation 3 HD with a larger one. The one that comes stock in the PS3 is a Seagate Momentus 5400 RPM 60 GB HD. The one I put in was a Western Digital Scorpio Blue 5400 RPM 320 GB HD. Since the hard drive that came out of the PS3 was perfectly good I figured that I'd...
