I can't remember the name, but I think there used to be a pretty decent free online application by CNET or a similar site years ago for updating system drivers, but they had taken the service down at about the time, it started getting seemingly more accurate.
Based on my reading about, and testing once for myself, a this software auto-install site:
(From my first test, I have to say, it's awesome - it's all totally free right now, while they're trying to come to a decision on how they will do a paid/pro/premium version besides the free one. But the options they say will remain free seems like a plenty to me. It worked really nicely. For instance, I ended up restarting the computer I was trying it on in the middle of the install. Well, after the reboot, I went back to the downloads folder, and re-opened the same exact file. What it did was awesome - if it saw something was already installed, it just skipped it automatically.
I first read about it on Tom's Hardware.
I thought I'd check to see if there were any good driver sites as well.
I came across this right away, but maybe I'm just too paranoid, but something just doesn't seem right to me... can't put my finger on it. Anybody know anything about these guys?:
I couldn't check out there other site from work:
Got a proxy message saying the site had potentially unwanted software - it might be bad, might not, if you go there, be careful (unless you already know it's safe). This company says they are based in North Carolina.
Same site, different domain:
