    Well done Dave. A little background in my case. I have been working with Window's since Version 3.0 (yeah I am old). I have obtained my MCSE (Microsoft Certified Systems Engineer) and my MCT (Microsoft Certified Trainer) along with at least 13 other certifications, my point is I know of what I speak. You are very good at this...if you do not have your certs, get after em I think you would make a great MCT...I have hired a lot of them less talented than you are. Just thought I would toss that out there. I came here because of a crazy issue I am having with a Bluetooth Audio issue that has stumped me. Oh...with your MCSE and MCT (not sure what they are called now a days) you can make a VERY comfortable living, if your good at it, and you seem to be. Good luck.. and well done.

    Thanks to you. I mean it. It took me 3 full days to figure out what was wrong with my windows 10 update from 8.1. I came to know it were the graphic drivers which created the problems, but wasn't able to fix it by traditional updating and from AMD website. I finally was successfull by going through your steps in which you asked to go to laptop's manufacturer's website. I downloaded the given driver graphics and that fixed my problem. Thanks again. :)

  • @Jixxor
    @Jixxor 3 года назад +3

    my problem usually is that I do now know what drivers I need. Its so unnecessarily complicated to get a system started. I wish manufacturers would just have a single software that lets you choose your product and have that software download and install everything. Like an Intel software that I just open up, select my i7-8700k and fire away, then one from MSi which I open up, select the Z370 and have it automatically install everything I need. Nvidia has that with Geforce experience I guess, but GPU drivers are simple enough already. I guess half my drivers if not all are outdated by now, but theres no way you would manually check every few weeks and check for any updates. Too bad driver updaters are bad apparently, they sound good.

    There's been a lot of postings on Norton regarding being leery when it states it found obsolete drivers and letting Norton install updates. People have stated cases of Norton's driver update making their devices unusable. I was always checking the Device Manager whenever Norton stated that and Device Manager said the latest driver was installed when Norton stated the opposite.

  • @rogerm1111
    @rogerm1111 Год назад

    Third party driver update software, does not do the same job as Windows Update. They will typically find more driver updates than Windows Update does, as they all have their own database of drivers, which will usually much bigger than Microsoft's one. It's important to note that no third party driver update tool has ever contained malware. I know this as I've tested pretty much every driver update tool published since 2004, when the first driver updaters were released.
    One thing you missed about Windows Update is optional driver updates. Quite often there will be some driver updates that are listed as optional updates and won't be installed along with the regular Windows Updates. Quite often, but not always, you can find drivers for devices which have no driver installed, or only a generic Microsoft one, rather than the proper OEM one.

    After a Windows 10 update, my keyboard is not responding, although the touchpad works fine. Any fix would be appreciated.
