You are awesome, it is clear that since subscribing to this software that I've only relied upon it to update drivers and not actually taken a look to see what else it does. Thank you.

Also, there are some driver packages that are quite large and come from slow sites. How about a 'local share cache' for machines on the same LAN where if one machine has already downloaded the package, others in the LAN can grab that package from them locally, rather than having to download it again remotely. I've personally got 4 PCs and 5 laptops here and that would help a huge amount.

How about a driver clean-up.. Where drivers of old peripherals and such are shown and you can remove them. After a while these can really stack up. I've had OS installs where I've had a whole load of different phones/usb controllers/graphics cards etc, all of which I no longer use or even own. Currently I just re-install my OS from a base image but this could help those who don't.

Offer 'vendor specific' options to drivers. Given the myriad different implementations using the same chipset, there are times where a manufacturer has certain requirements that only their drivers can properly get the hardware working. Perhaps implement this with a system probe (especially useful for laptops) and/or a 'identify my hardware/system' feature.

Could implement a verification process that tests the functionality of the new driver (so for network, test a connection can be made afterwards) and if it doesn't pass the test, offer to rollback the driver version.
