"easy easy easy"
Version: DriverHound 2.1.1.7
Pros
No more hunting down individual drivers. It scans the computer, checks out the hardware and finds the drivers you need. Then not only downloads said drivers, but installs them too!
Cons
Register link is small and in the upper right hand corner.
-
"Better than others"
Version: DriverHound 2.1.1.7
Pros
Outstanding product. Better than any other product I've tried.
Cons
can't think of any
-
"Found lots of drivers"
Version: DriverHound 2.1.1.7
Pros
My computer was lacking a lot of drivers and this software found and downloaded and installed them.
Cons
I don't really know what all the drivers do.
Summary
My computer works much better now. I also purchased RegServe too.

"Easy to use and seems to work"
Version: DriverHound 2.1.1.7
Pros
Simple interface. Downloads and installs updates automatically.
Cons
Usual "pay for full functionality" requirement.
Not all downloaded drivers worked properly.Summary
I tried Driver Hound after obtaining a refund from Wise Drivers, which I found to be useless on both my laptop and PC.
It was immediately obvious that Driver Hound is a far superior product. The automatic download and installation of drivers worked seamlessly. only one negative. Driver for "Mobile Intel Express 945 Chipset" failed to work properly on two computers running XP. I had to update them using Windows Device Manager. If it hadn't been for that problem I would have given it 4 or 5 stars.
