WHY UPDATE MY DRIVERS AND SOFTWARE?Hardware Drivers are essential software applications that enable devices that are connected to your PC to communicate with your operating system, and other software on your computer. These Drivers allow your software to access the full functionality and feature set available for each individual piece of hardware connected to your computer. As both your operating system and the software applications running on your PC are updated, new drivers are needed to ensure that your hardware can remain fully functional within its new environment. Most manufacturers do not contact you to advise that a new driver has been released for your hardware and therefore most users are unaware that new, updated drivers are available for their system. |

Last week, Aceeca, a New Zealand PDA company, announced the availability of new 64-bit Windows drivers for the Garnet OS. If that doesn’t mean much to you, you probably don’t have a Palm PDA. The Palm PDA line has a long, nearly murderous history of acquisitions and licensees. Suffice it to say that Palm, which was acquired in 2010 by HP, hasn’t been doing a lot of development for its older (yet highly popular) stuff. ACCESS, which got the rights to the Palm OS, changed the OS’s name to Garnet, and here we are. |

In the grand scheme of things, Windows 7 is a lot easier to use than earlier versions of the operating system. One area in which users have gotten the most improvement is in adding devices. Back in the day, adding a new hardware device to Windows involved adding hardware drivers, restarting and praying that your device could be seen. Today, the operation is much smoother and typically doesn’t require driver installation for most devices. |

Keeping your system updated is a bit of a chore, but Microsoft has automated that task for the most part. Still, some users prefer to do or authorize upgrades and updates manually. Few things are more disappointing to a user than to spend a lot of time applying a major update like a service pack, only to find out that the SP won’t load. Believe it or not, your Windows drivers can make or break a service pack installation. |
