Technetium Posted March 15, 2006 Share Posted March 15, 2006 (edited) Can anyone tell me if it is ok to integrate a "Driver Magician" backup of all my drivers (including windows) & then select "REMOVE drivers" on the "Remove Components" page in order to make an installation specifically for one machine?

Bâshrat the Sneaky Posted March 18, 2006 Share Posted March 18, 2006 That should work, but I don't know in what format Driver Magician backs the drivers up. But why would you want to remove them afterwards? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Technetium Posted March 19, 2006 Author Share Posted March 19, 2006 Driver Magician gives you a choice of formats (in this case I would choose the folders option).Why remove the windows disc drivers? :- If I add every driver the machine needs from the backup I don't need anymore drivers of the original windows disc.Why do it? :- Because I can (also it will save a little space on my hard drive) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
MadBoy Posted March 19, 2006 Share Posted March 19, 2006 By removing system drivers you are shooting your own leg Then every time you will put in some usb mouse, use keyboard or some other hardware that is supposed to work by default you will be asked for drivers. I don't think saving couple of MB is worth that. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
