Driver Booster Killed my computer
in Driver Booster 9
Posted
This is a legitimate problem. I have used Driver Booster for years and havent had many problems with it. However, I figured Id run a check and update my drivers recently and a restart does give me problems now. I have not had a successful restart after 3 attempts, even by isolation specific drivers during each attempt. Last time I used Driver Booster was roughly 6 months ago without issue, but something is definitely wrong right now.
The only way I got my PC running is from the bluescreen after the failed restarts.
Every update Driver booster installed was wiped after system repair. So there is a issue here.
If your lucky you can get it running again from the restart bluescreen by clicking:
Advanced Options > Troubleshoot > Advanced Options > Startup Repair
This worked for me, but its probably hit or miss depending on the problem.
IOBIT, you need to figure this out. The reason I bought Driver Booster is because of the simplicity of keeping my system updated. If I have to become a tech to diagnose problems your software causes, then that simplicity is gone and there is no reason to subscribe anymore. Just my opinion.
Great work up until now!
