How to backup & restore Drivers in Windows 7 & Vista
Drivers are programs that hook directly into Windows and control the essential tasks of communicating your instructions to a hardware device and then relaying data back to you.
To know what hardware drivers are installed on your computer and to view their details : Rt-click Computer > Manage > System Tools > Computer Management > Device Manager.
While with Windows 7 and Vista offers the plug and play feature, you might want to bcakup some installed drivers, if you don’t have the Driver CD that came with the computer or they are unavailable online. This comes in quite handy if you purchase a computer and want to backup the initial set of drivers. It can be quite difficulty for example to find drivers for hardware installed in a notebook if the operating system has to be setup again.
