Struggling to Get a Newly Added Device to Work?
Countless users spend literally hours trying to get devices like webcams, printers, scanners, video cards, and more working properly. It doesn't have to this way! Hardware Helper was designed to automate this process and do the heavy lifting for you, automatically installing and updating nearly any Windows device in minutes.
Automatic, Customized Device Detection
Hardware Helper's custom device identification engine automatically determines the exact components and peripherals installed on your PC or laptop and quickly pings our Smart Update software update location system to successfully search for available stability and performance updates for your particular hardware.
Smart Update Software Locator
PCHelpSoft's proprietary Smart Update Software Locator scours our massive driver update database to pinpoint the exact device software update package for your components and peripherals. Smart Update even compares your currently installed drivers to ensure you're only receiving updates truly required for your computer's devices.
Driver Export Manager
Reinstalling Windows? Upgrading to Windows 7? Hardware Helper quickly backs up all the drivers installed on your PC or laptop, compressing the backup drivers to a zip file that's easy to export and reinstall with once you've completed your reinstall or upgrade. Save hours on searching for and reinstalling device driver software!

I purchased Hardware Helper to see if it could resolve an issue I have with a camera and Windows 7 not recongizing the camera. Hardware Helper was advertised as something that could possible help in a situation like this. Not only did it not help fix the camera driver issue, it changed 19 drivers on my two week old computer and now all video streaming software like DivX and Windows Media Centre, etc will no longer play videos of any kind.
Take caution when purhasing software from the internet, generally they don`t do what they say they will do and often will harm your computer
