Cga_computers Laptops & Desktops Driver Download For Windows



Windows comes with drivers for many devices, such as printers, displays, keyboards, and TVs. A driver is software that a device uses to work with your PC. Every device needs a driver to work with your PC. So, in many cases, you can plug in a device, and it’ll work automatically.

Instead of having to search for the most compatible drivers and carry out the installation yourself, a driver update tool can often scan your PC and automatically update your drivers to the most compatible version for your PC or Laptop.

Windows can also download device software and info. This might include an app that the device manufacturer created to go with your device or info like the product name, manufacturer, and model number, to help you distinguish between similar devices.

Drivers are updated occasionally. Windows can update them automatically, or you can install the updated drivers yourself. It's important for you to have confidence in the updated drivers you install. Windows notifies you if it detects a suspicious or unsafe driver you shouldn't install.

You can also search for new drivers on the manufacturer's website. Driver updates are often available in the support section of their website. Download the latest driver for your device, and follow the installation instructions on the website. You can usually double-tap or double-click the downloaded file to install the driver on your PC.

If the driver you got from a disc or downloaded from a website doesn't install itself, you might need to install manually.

Notifications telling you about unsafe drivers

Occasionally, you might see a notification that a driver is unsigned, has been changed since it was signed, or can't be installed by Windows. We recommend that you don't install unsigned or changed drivers.

A digitally signed driver includes a digital signature, which is an electronic security mark that indicates the publisher of software and whether someone has tampered with it since it was signed. If a driver has been signed by a publisher that has verified its identity with a certification authority, you can be confident that the driver comes from that publisher and hasn't been changed.

If you see any of the following notifications when you're installing a driver, you should stop the installation and go to your device manufacturer's website to get a digitally signed driver for your device.

Windows can't verify the publisher of this driver software

The driver doesn't have a digital signature or has been signed with a digital signature that wasn't verified by a certification authority. You should only install this driver if you got it from the manufacturer's disc or from your system administrator.

This driver hasn't been signed

The driver hasn't been digitally signed by a verified publisher. The driver might have been changed to include malware that could harm your PC or steal info. In rare cases, legitimate publishers do change drivers after they've been digitally signed, but you should only install an unsigned driver if you got it from a device manufacturer's disc.

Unfortunately, there's no trustworthy source of info that indicates who has published an unsigned driver. Anyone can change the contents of an unsigned driver, and there's no way to know why it was changed. Most manufacturers now digitally sign the drivers they create before releasing them to the public.

Windows requires a digitally signed driver

A driver that lacks a valid digital signature, or has a signature that was changed after it was signed, can't be installed on 64-bit versions of Windows. You'll only see this notification if you have a 64-bit version of Windows and try to install such a driver on it.

Granite Microsystems, Mequon, Wis., took home Best In Show honors at the annual Intel Solutions Summit held here last week for systems builders and Intel's solution provider channel. The award is presented jointly by Intel and CRN.

Granite, which also builds solutions for clients in the test and data acquisition and industrial automation segments, provides built-to-order 2-D and 3-D medical imaging solutions, tapping into Intel's channel programs for additional support.


CRN Editor Heather Clancywith (l. to r.) Intel's Tom Kilroy, Granite award recipients Terry Manus and Clint Hanson, and Intel's Willy Agatstein.

'We've been able to utilize [Intel's] programs to design things at a much earlier stage compared to the market,' said Hans Dittmar, marketing communications manager at Granite.

Dittmar made note of Intel's recent establishment of a health-care technology business unit aimed at providing IT solutions to a growing segment. The chip maker's ability to present a clear road map and provide prereleased Intel products for Granite to use in development has helped the solution provider roll out custom applications and hardware to clients, he said.

'Intel has put programs into a road-map scenario so you can design them into a medical product and have [system] changes less frequently,' Dittmar said.
