Good General "Holistic" Driver Updater

Was curious if there was a good program out there that could scan all the devices and hardware, etc, on my computer to check for driver updates. One stop driver shopping.

I've used this Official Home of Driver Detective - Your Most Trusted Driver Update and Driver Download Software worked well for me after a format or new install. It's a pay service though.

I am just going to say, that no there is not anything like you are looking for.

The best thing you can do is find the current driver for all your hardware, then you *could* just rely on windows to keep them updated.....

but other than windows update there is no tool that works reliably and well....

Slimdrivers works great and can be run for free.
Just goto SlimDrivers DriverUpdate - Update Drivers for Windows 7, XP, and Vista
