Backing up drivers and see which drive is installed

[LunarWolf]

Since reformatting is so much of a hassle, I would like to know is there any program which can backup my drivers just in case I need to reformat so that it will be much easier. Especially my sound drive. I don't care about other drivers. the last time I reformat myself, I don't know what sound drive my computer has.

The second thing I want to ask is how to see what driver is installed on your computer so that you can manually download them and burn them into a CD or keep in the pendrive as a backup before you reformat.

You can use programs like DriverMax or Driver Magician to backup and store the drivers. They also give option of saving only non-microsoft drivers to save space.

And to find out about the drivers, go to the device properties and see all the drivers installed for each component of your pc.
