Smile Anyone tried out driverguide's driverscan?

So I subscribed for two days to a driver finding service they offer. You download an app that scans your system and tells you what drivers are missing or are out of date. I've had little success with it, it seems user supported and drivers must be uploaded by the users. It couldn't find a lot of the correct drivers for some of my devices, and also couldn't identify some of the devices, I was a little dissapointed. Anyone else have experience with their service or any like it? Do you know of a good one?

although driverguide is a good service for those hard to find drivers, I would not rely on them to keep all of my drivers up to date. IMO it would be better just to go to the specific hardwares manufacturers website and download the latest there. At least you know fer sure that you have the latest.
