Hello,

In Terms Of Drivers, You Can Have Two Types Of Devices:

A - "First World" - They Have Already Some Driver Installed,

B - "Third World" - They Have None Installed Yet, And You Are Clueless Where To Get Even A Generic One.

There Are Several Utilities That ( Better Or Worse ) Help You Update The ( A ) Type With The Latest Drivers.

Is There An Equivalent Utility To Help You Find A Generic Good Enough Driver For The ( B ) Type, Finally Promoting That Device To The ( A ) Type World ?

Thank You.

Generally, I don't use the programs for automatic updates of drivers... I don't trust them.

Whenever I Want Software I Go To The VERSIONTRACKER DOWNLOAD CNET Site, Check The Original Developer Site And See If I Can Get The Most Recent Version.

SLIMDRIVERS Sometimes Installs Drivers Older Than The Ones Already Installed.

It Is The Only Utility I Remember Using, And I Have Not Used It In A Long Time.

Thank You For The Tip.

That is the main reason why I avoid using these type of programs... sometimes they do more harm than a good.
