Publisher's description of DriverMax 3.2
From Innovative Solutions:DriverMax helps you backup all the drivers installed on your Windows computer. When needed you will be able to reinstall all your drivers or just the ones you choose in a single step that takes less than a minute; a very handy tool especially after reinstalling Windows or when the hardware driver CDs which came with your computer are no longer available. DriverMax also helps you check if you have the latest versions of drivers and displays detailed information about all drivers. No more searching for rare drivers on disks or having to track them down on the Internet or inserting one installation CD after the other. Simply export all your current drivers (or just the ones that you want) to a folder or a compressed file. After reinstalling Windows you will have everything in one place.
Version 3.2 features a new DriverMax Control Panel.
Editor's review of DriverMax 3.2
5.0 stars
- "Maximize your driver security"
Behind a slick interface, this program backs up all your PC's drivers in case you mess up something fierce. From registration to implementation, DriverMax works fast, runs smooth, and does even more than mere backing up.
When you run the app, it asks you if you'd like to run the trial version or apply for a registration key. The key is free, though, requiring only an e-mail address and your name. Once you've entered the key, the program interface appears, with slick button navigation: Driver Operations, Updates and Identification, and Popular Hardware. Mousing over one reveals more choices, so you can export your drivers, import drivers, or view an installed drivers report.
Updates lets you update both the DriverMax software and the drivers themselves, although as of this writing there is a warning label on the DriverMax Web site that downloads are not currently functioning. The program can also identify unknown hardware and point you in the direction of popular hardware options, pointing users to a compilation of statistics about different video cards and processors.
The strongest features, though, relate to driver backup and reinstalls. They function smoothly, offering users the option to back up all drivers or compile a customized list. Reinstalling an "accidentally" deleted driver was as pain-free as could be. This is a great utility tool that should appeal to newbies, advanced hackers, and everybody in between.

Version: DriverMax 3.2
"Useful for keeping drivers up to date, but can't download them"
Pros: Elegant layout, shows status of drivers (database seems to be accurate). Free!

Version: DriverMax 3.2
Pros: It gives a full description of the drivers that are on your computer and that is it you cannot get any drivers. but a nice little utility to know what you have. For the money look into Driver Genius Pro at Avanquest software this program does it all just look into you pay not expensive but at least you can get drivers when needed the one thing drivermax does not so take a look and good luck
Cons: And one thing do not fall prey to paying for Version Tracker pro nothing but junk I fell for it and it gave nothing just a word from been there done that. the only thing good from it is I got my money back.
