DriverMax
Manage your Windows system drivers


DriverMax is a new program which allows you to easily reinstall all your Windows drivers. No more searching for rare drivers on discs or on the web or inserting one installation CD after the other. Simply export all your current drivers (or just the ones that work ok) to a folder or a compressed file. After reinstalling Windows you will have everything in one place!

Most of the situations when Windows is running slower are caused by faulty driver installations. Windows stores all versions of older drivers just in case you want to go back; sometimes it messes up older versions with more recent ones. The Export Wizard will only export the drivers you select by copying the needed files to a folder or a compressed ZIP file.

After reinstalling Windows all drivers will be back in place in less than 5 minutes - sparing you of searching, inserting disc after disk and losing precious time. The Import Drivers wizard allows you to install all the drivers that you exported earlier. The entire operation might take up to 5-10 minutes.

Just one single computer restart will be required after all drivers are reinstalled!

DriverMax is able to display a complete report of all drivers (versions, release dates) installed on your system. This feature can also be very useful when you want to analyze the differences between the drivers installed on different machines.

DriverForge
Automatically installs drivers

DriverForge is a program that will automatically install all drivers from a specified location. These drivers can be compressed or uncompressed.

Any uncompressed drivers can be in ONE folder but it is recursive (drivers can be in sub folders as well). The program installs the drivers from the uncompressed location.

Features:
Give a family member or friend a CD/DVD/USB stick with every driver they could ever need. Create an autorun.inf to automatically run and install all drivers from that removable drive on their computer.
IT folks can use it post-imaging to install the rest of the drivers they didn´t want to install pre-imaging. Especially helpful to install drivers from a mapped location.
Download the latest drivers from all the manufacturers for your machine. Point the program to install drivers from one location and hit Start!

DriverPacks BASE
Slipstream the DriverPacks into your Windows installation files

Each DriverPack is a package of drivers for a particular category of hardware. There are for example DriverPacks for Sound devices and for Graphics devices. For each of these DriverPacks we include every device driver of that category. On top of that, we solve tricky problems — such as driver conflicts — for you.

They are intended to be used while creating a Windows 2000, XP, 2003 or Vista (and soon Windows 7) installation disc/image. We also provide you with the software to make that as simple as possible.

Your Windows installation disc doesn't have drivers for all hardware, and over time the drivers it does have get out-of-date.

We've built this to simplify the lives of network administrators and employees of pc shops, but also enthusiast pc users
