Note: DriverMax only works on Windows Vista and Windows XP (all service packs).

DriverMax is a new program which allows you to easily reinstall all your Windows drivers. No more searching for rare drivers on discs or on the web or inserting one installation CD after the other. Simply export all your current drivers (or just the ones that work ok) to a folder or a compressed file. After reinstalling Windows you will have everything in one place!

Most of the situations when Windows is running slower are caused by faulty driver installations. Windows stores all versions of older drivers just in case you want to go back; sometimes it messes up older versions with more recent ones. The Export Wizard will only export the drivers you select by copying the needed files to a folder or a compressed ZIP file.

After reinstalling Windows all drivers will be back in place in less than 5 minutes - sparing you of searching, inserting disc after disk and losing precious time. The Import Drivers wizard allows you to install all the drivers that you exported earlier. The entire operation might take up to 5-10 minutes.

Just one single computer restart will be required after all drivers are reinstalled!

The Tech Monkey Comments:

I have installed the application, ran the backup all went perfect, quick and my drivers landed perfectly into a 17mb zip file. As for re-installing, that is something I am probably not going to do, as when I do need to restore my system, I will do so with a ghost image I created. I’ll cover Ghost imaging and hard drive cloning in future posts! I believe DriveMax is a great product, and it may be possible that I will in fact re-install from this backup I’ve created, should I encounter issues/incompatibilities with future driver upgrades. It will be interesting to see how smooth the re-install of the drivers goes. Anyone tried yet?


This is a Tech Monkey Highly Recommended piece of software!

Until I do a re-install of the drivers with this product, be that on my own equipment, colleagues’ or customers computer, I can’t give DriverMax 2.0 a full five stars I’m afraid.
