If its as good as claimed, it could prove very useful.

I have one unknown device on my laptop, lets see if its works

[stevie2001]

I couldn`t try it, I don`t have any unknowns.

It`ll be interesting to see if it works.

Let us know.

I installed a new O/S on a laptop at work and some of the drivers were lost - I used this app, and it found the only device I couldn't identify, but since I ddn't have a connection to the net at the time, it obviously failed to download it. It does leave an icon on your desktop, which I just deleted.

Thanks for replying.

I think it`ll go in my inventry of useful apps.

I`m sure I read that it isn`t perfect at getting the downloads from the web, but I guess you can`t complain too much as its free.
