my driver scan programs are saying that i need a 'standard dual pci ide controller' driver update. when i try to find an update it says i must have certain OS's. mine is a HP Windows Vista 64 bit system. the update program says i must have a '32' bit system. Whats up with this?
i cannot find an update that says anything for 64 bit systems?
i have ran an update for my AMD AHCI Raid controller as well and my driver update program says it still is out of date? i am using 'Driver Detective'.
i have an HP Pavillion dv5z-1000 CTO Notebook with Vista Home Premium 64bit OS
I would highly advise you stay away from these driver scanner/updater programs, I used to use DriverScanner until it installed an update for my wireless card that wasn't supported by the rest of my computer. It essentially killed my internet connection until I fixed it, but it wasn't half a faff to fix.
It is much better to download the drivers from the manufacturers' websites directly rather than using 3rd party software
thanks to both of you who answered, and your's were the same idea i came up with. however, a friend of mine already bought the software($12) because the deal was time constrained. OH well! Thanks again
