Im currently using "driver magician" to back up all my drivers Is there a freeware alternative or does anyone have instructions on doing it manually?

This is a nice freeware tool for driver backup:

My link above isn't working or you've found a new version?

Once again, me bringing back an old topic but it's valid I think. I just don't like to create more threads than I have to.

Anyway, when I open an .INF file, there's the [sourceDiskFiles] is it? It shows the list of files that make up the driver along with the INF and .CAT file. If I take just those files and put them in a folder with the INF and CAT files, is that essentially a driver backup? Or are there more files? When Double Driver or Driver Magician, or Driver Genius back up a driver, they are just scanning the INF file, right?

It would be nice if someone on MSFN, namely Jcarle or Zxian or XPero could code a small program designed primarily for effective driver backup, especially without the need to have the driver installed first!

Cheers,

Jeremy
