    LightBulb Driver updates

    Good day!
    What could be the best driver updating programme? (Using Vista 32bit)

    I have tried
    Driver detective - finds 23 out-of-date drivers
    Driver scanner - finds 3 out-of-date drivers
    RadarSync - updates loads of drivers (as it said), but detective still finds 23 out-of-date.

    Any suggestions? I am ready to buy one of this type of programmes, but which could be the best one?

    The free ones are not good.

    Driver updating should be left for Microsoft update to do. New update for drivers can cause problems and you don't necessarily need them. You have to take precaution when using a driver updater.

    True. Don't touch anything if everything is working fine.
