[SOLVED] Driver verifier

[Luka_]

Is it perfctly safe/okay to use driver verifier and is there anything I should know before I use it if I do. Also what kind of problems is it used to fix.

i feel thread is wandering off topic (and I blame myself here too) but I do feel, before I steer it back in right direction, I need to say 1st party driver updaters are fine, but 3rd party aren't (wonders who 2nd party would be). the people who make the hardware can generally be trusted to get it right. Drivers anyway... not touching the apps they all seem to bundle into the updaters.

So anyway, back to waiting for op to reply

2nd party is YOU.

while I am sure some try, the number of 2nd party drivers is probably low. Hence why I don't hear of them as much. Are they like the custom drivers you used to be able to get for GPU cards?
