5 Free Software To Find Device Drivers for PC

Posted: 03 Aug 2012 12:30 PM PDT


Here, are 5 free software to find device Drivers. These free software scan your PC to find any missing or outdated drivers. Then they provide options to download those drivers. Some of these software let you download drivers for free. Others tell you about missing drivers for free, but charge you money in case you decide to download drivers through the software.

If you have an old PC that is missing some drivers (sound drivers, wifi drivers, etc.); then it might become difficult to find those device drivers. These driver finding software are especially good in those cases. Do note that none of these is perfect. It might happen that one of these software is not able to find missing drivers for your PC. In that case, you can try another software in the list, and hope it works.

I tested these software with two computers: One a desktop, and another a laptop. One of those had wifi driver missing, and another had missing sound driver. Using all these software, I was able to find both the missing drivers, and it was worth the effort.

Driver Easy:

Driver Easy

Driver Easy is a free software to find PC drivers. Driver easy is one of the best software that I found to search for appropriate drivers which supports your PC. The software even allows you to download and install the required drivers directly from the web for free. You just have to run a hardware scan and the software will start identifying your missing drivers. After completion of hardware scan, the software provides you the list of all the outdated and missing drivers for your PC. Now, roll over the list of missing and outdated drivers and select any one of them to download and install on your PC. Click on download button and start the download. After completion of download, just click on install button to install the appropriate driver on your PC. Driver Easy is completely free for personal use. It comes in a paid version as well for commercial use, and that has additional features to backup drivers, restore drivers, and uninstall drivers. Read our complete review of Driver Easy.

Driver Detective:

Driver Detective is another free software to search for PC drivers. Before I found Driver Easy, Driver Detective was my favorite software which I used to find outdated device drivers on my computer. Driver Detective software works like a charm on PC. You can easily run a hardware scan and find appropriate driver supported by your system. The software provides you the list of all drivers which are outdated, missing, updated, and other system drivers. You can select the required driver from the list and download it from the software itself.

I switched from Driver Detective to Driver Easy, only because Driver Easy provides the option to download the driver selected for free. But, downloading driver from Driver Detective is paid. For this, you can easily type the name and series of the driver and search for it via Google or on any other search engine. You can then download the free version of the driver software anywhere from the web. Apart from this Driver Detective driver scanner is one of the best and most convenient tool to use.

Rad our full review on Driver Detective software.

Uniblue DriverScanner 2013:

Uniblue DriverScanner 2013 is another free driver finder tool that we like. On running the software, it automatically identifies the drivers which are supported by your PC. After the completion of driver scan, the software provides you the list of drivers which are outdated. You can roll over the list and download the required one. Click on the driver to download it from the software itself. But downloading from Uniblue DriverScanner 2013 is paid. You can easily download the driver by searching it on Google or any other search engine.

The good part of the software is its info about driver age. Uniblue tells you the age of drivers and then you can take the action accordingly. You can also check for the current version and the newer version of the outdated driver software. This makes your search more specific and easier to find from any search engine.

Check out our complete review of Uniblue DriverScanner 2013 software.

Driver Genius:

Driver Genius is a free software for PC to scan and find drivers. This driver scanner software is a bit different software which provides you a unique interface with driver packages. The software scans your PC and find drivers which are listed in different driver packages. Now, browse among different driver packages and find the right driver which you require for your PC. But downloading the driver from Driver Genius is paid. Look the name and series of the driver and then search for it on Google like search engine.

Apart from driver scan, you can also backup, restore, and uninstall drivers. Like other driver scanner software, you can check hardware info with Driver Genius software too.

Rad our full review on Driver Genius software for PC.

DriverAgent:

 

DriverAgent is a free software which helps you to find device drivers on your PC. DriverAgent software works a bit different from all other software as discussed above. The software works along with your default browser. On launching DriverAgent, it scans your PC, and then shows results on your web browser. You will see the list of all hardware devices with the driver status of each hardware device.

The hardware devices with missing drivers are identified with a red cross mark and the devices with updated drivers are identified by green check mark. To download the missing driver, click on blue mark download button. But, remember that downloading the driver from DriverAgent is paid.

You can check out DriverAgent software reviewed by us.

All these are pretty good software to download missing drivers on your PC. If one or more PC functions have been limited because of lack of appropriate drivers, these software can help you put life back in your PC.

Let us know in comments if you have some other personal favorite driver finder.

Free Windows Right Click Context Menu Editor: ShellMenu View

Posted: 03 Aug 2012 06:30 AM PDT


ShellMenu View is a free utility which you can use in order to disable unwanted context menu items that appear when you right click on a specific file type or a folder. Each time that we right click on something inside Windows Explorer, on for example a video file, we will be greeted with a specific selection of programs and other options that are available for this file type. With ShellMenu View that list can edited, for each file type that is present on the computer, or should I say each application that is installed on the computer and can be used to open this particular file type.

ShellMenu View default window

We mentioned enabling and disabling applications that will be displayed when you right click on a video, on the image above, you can see that pretty much all the video formats are present in the ShellMenu list. The most popular video format .avi is selected and you can choose if Windows Media Player is gonna be displayed when you right click on .avi videos while browsing the computer.

You can also check out how to create cascading right click menu reviewed by us.

How to disable right click context menu items with ShellMenu View

Using this free context menu editor isn’t that difficult, the most important thing that you need to know would be what exactly each one of the items in the list that waits for you when you open up ShellMenu View represents.

ShellMenu View disabled window

On the image above for example we have disabled Notepad from appearing in the list of possible commands whenever someone right clicks on a .bat file. To do that we had to find where exactly in the list, under the second column called Extensions is .bat extension located. After doing that, all that you have to do is right click on that entry, find the Disable Selected Items option and click on it. Context menu entries which are disabled are gonna be displayed in a different color, they are gonna have a grayer color.

ShellMenu View disabled items

The two items in red are disabled, and notice that they have a slightly grayer color than all the other entries present on the list, the ones which are activated have white background. Restoring a certain application or an option to the right click context menu is just as easy as disabling, find the disabled entry on the list, right click and select Enable. Notice on the image above the two red buttons in the top left corner of the application, one is red while the other one is green. Use these buttons to disable and enable entries faster, red is of course for disable and green for enable.

Conclusion

ShellMenu View is a standalone application that doesn’t require installation in order to work. Let’s say for example you delete an application yet the right click context menu was left behind and whenever you right click on a music file the deleted application is still there. You can use ShellMenu View to edit the right click context menu and disable the deleted application, completely free. Download ShellMenu View and see how it can help you, free download.

Medical Records Maintenance with GooPatient

Posted: 03 Aug 2012 05:00 AM PDT


GooPatient is a program which allows a person to maintain medical records of multiple people on the computer in a safe and secure format. The name might not conjure up pretty imagery, but the software seems promising.

Features of this medical records maintenance software

The application boasts of a number of features that are quite commendable. First and foremost is the ability to make a medical card which contains all pertinent information about the person. This can include allergies, medications, immunization vaccines, any serious medical conditions that the person might have had, doctor information etc. This can come in extremely handy to doctors or physicians in case an accurate medical history is not available. This medical card can act as a ready reckoner.

The card, or patient file, can also contain lab tests that have been conducted and the results. Other than this, a person can choose to upload daily history and use hashtags to indicate medical terms such as diseases, medicines and symptoms. So, anyone who's familiar with the now ubiquitous Twitter should have absolutely no problems using this application. Adding health records is simple and users can specify starting and ending dates. The user can also include lab tests and reports of the various tests that were conducted for that medical symptom during the specified period. The application also allows the user to include photographs of visible symptoms through a webcam so that even if the symptoms disappeared, the doctor can refer to the pictures to get a better idea of what might have caused it.

Obviously, this can also be used to include pictures of reports in case one doesn't wish to type it all out. There's also the chance that something might be omitted while typing. X-ray reports, etc. can also be added to a particular person's file. The application also allows more than one person's records to be stored. So, an entire family's medical record can be stored by the application.

Downloading and Installation

The file isn't very large (just over 4 MB) and downloading takes less than a minute on a standard broadband connection. Installation was done on an Intel Core2Duo processor running Windows 7 32-bit and was done in a jiffy. It can also be installed on lower version of Windows. The application can be downloaded here.

Working and Interface

The program has a very pleasant interface and is really easy to work with. All the fonts and buttons are clean and large and easily readable. This makes for a very nice experience overall. The application works smoothly enough and no hassles were encountered during the course of this review. The program is also light on resources and doesn't put much strain on the system. All the buttons and controls are exactly where one would expect them to be.

Verdict

There aren't too many programs of this kind available on the internet and this makes a great case for itself with its easy-to-use interface, simple working and plethora of features. All in all, GooPatient is a good program to have and a necessary one too.
