Drivers are computer programs that allow hardware devices to communicate with higher-level programs. The Device Manager lists all hardware drivers installed on a system, including display, network, sound, and USB drivers. To install a driver, it must first be uncompressed into a folder. The driver files or folder location must then be pointed to during the Windows installation process. Finally, the computer should be rebooted for the new driver to take effect. If a driver installation fails, the BIOS, jumpers, and cabling should be checked along with the manufacturer's website for troubleshooting tips.

- 2. “What Are Drivers” (And how to install them) • Drivers are a computer program allowing high-level computer programs to interact with a hardware device. • Within a “Device Manager” are; computer, disk drivers, display adapters, DVD/CD-ROM divers, Human Interface Devices, IDE ATA/ATAPI controllers, keyboards, mice and other pointing devices, monitors, network adapters, other devices, ports (Com & LPT), processors, sound, video & game controllers, system devices, and Universal Serial Bus (USB) controllers.
- 3. Inserting Drivers • Driver Signing and Digital Signatures • At a command prompt enter Sigverif with parameters. • When a device driver or other software is giving problems, use it to verify that the software has been approved by Microsoft. • Driver Verifier • Enter veifier.exe at a command prompt screen. • Use it to identify a driver that is causing a problem. The tool puts stress on selected drivers, which cause the driver with a problem to crash. In order to install any driver, first you will need to “Uncompress” the file. When extracting /uncompressing the drivers, make sure to remember when you place the folder containing the drivers as you will need to point Windows to the folder when installing the drivers. Finally, the single file and /or the files extracted after you have finished installing the drivers. Remember to reboot your computer after the drivers have been installed.
- 4. Problems Installing • If you are having problems installing your drivers to your desktop/pc, then these are some steps that you will need to check for; • Has BIOS setup been correctly configured for auto detection? • Are the jumpers on the drivers set correctly? • Have the power cord and data cable been properly connected ? Verifying that each is solidly connected at both ends • Check the Web site of the driver manufacturer for suggestions, if the above setups don’t solve your problem. Look for diagnostic software that can be downloaded from the Web site and used to check the drivers.
