| 760031 | 2009-03-27 09:04:00 | I recently found a very useful software called RadarSync (http://www.radarsync.com/), it seems to be the only peice of freeware that can update all the drivers on a PC automatically. Its works very well, I tested it on 3 pcs, hope you save a bit of time using this peice of freeware:thumbs: It does however occasionally miss some updates, but for bigger manfacturers such as Intel/Ati etc it works well with. Cheers Blam P.S Hopefully this doesn't sound like spam:p |

| 760034 | 2009-03-27 20:51:00 | SECUNIA SOFTWARE INSPECTOR is different to RADAR SYNC in that it deals with all prrograms installed on your PC. It runs in the background and reports on any programs added or uninstalled. Also informs you of any software that is end-of-life, insecure or needs patching, with a direct link to download patches and other options. I have been using this for a few months and highly commend it to all PC users - I'm sure you will agree if you try it - keeps your system up to date. RADAR SYNC is also useful but deals only with installed drivers. A similar utility is DRIVER DETECTIVE. I make full use of all 3 FREE programs, which, combined with my antivirus, spyware and cleaning/optimise software keep my system running at best expectations. |
