Windows Third Party Drivers and Updates
(Note: Before you download Windows related drivers and updates from Microsoft.com some or most of the downloads will need a validation check , which is a automatic or manual plugin Microsoft will prompt you to install to make sure your windows is a legit copy and using a genuine Microsoft serial number) Please don't make post and ask me why its not working when your using a fake or cracked version of windows.)

DirectX 9.0c latest March 2009


DirectX 10


Net.Framework 3.5 SP1


Windows Installer 4.5


NOTE: Always make sure to have the latest support drivers installed, such as C++ Distributer Package, DirectX and all the latest windows updates and service packs. Also make sure you remove your previous drivers and then install the new ones just to make sure you don't some clashes and conflicts.

And thats all people, hope the above helped, if you need any further help or guide just post and one of us helpers will get to you. If you also have more and other sites where others might benefit from for the latest drivers and updates, feel free to also give me a nudge and post what you want, so it'll will help others as well.

NOTE: All motherboard drivers links for the various posted Manufacturers and companies include updates from BIOS updates, chipset drivers, sound updates etc throughout to network drivers.

WILL round up a list of OEM manufacturers soon as I get the time to do it.

NOTE:I won't add sub- like printers, mice, gamepads, etc...Because they don't contribute to complete computer malfunctions and BSOD's, they only malfunction due miss use and come on, printer problems is so common and the only way of narrowing printer problems is paper jams etc or buying a new printer, which cost very very cheap these days. I'm only including a list of things people generally miss out on or don't update. So yeah, if you want you can make a separate of your own list, but I'm sticking to the more "compulsory" ones.

Ohhh well... heres more updates...

Its certainly not a question of asking...Strider...

If I was the mod, I would had edited the first post with the new entries... I wonder where is Bakuryu !!!

Also I have no idea why Chef continued the new entries on the other post rather than editing the first one

softhunterdevil

HP drivers are so necessary for my laptops ... why dont you put that on first post ?

Chef

@X-Caliber, for some reason I cannot edit my first port, I can only say thanks or quote :S

@Strider, that would be great if all the new additions to the first list.

@Softhunterdevil, sorry mate, mentioned it already before, read carefully.

Yeah, there is a 60 min post editing timeout (set to stop edit spam). Unfortunately it cannot be disabled user group-wise. I'll do the editing for the first post.
