The misery does not end there,  most of us do not find the recovery CD&rsquo;s at the right place at the right time,  thus making driver installation a huge task.</p>
<p>  This article will discuss one of many utilities which offer  a simple solution by backing up all the installed drivers on the computer in  one location. Once all the drivers are backed up in a directory, it can be  saved on a CD or in your Inbox or on your <a href="http://tnerd.com/2008/08/19/online-internet-web-storage-free-online-backup-internet-storage-services-reviewed/" target="_blank">online storage.</a></p>
<p>  This utility is called <a href="http://boozet.com/dd.htm" target="_blank">Double Driver</a> from <a href="http://boozet.com/donate.htm" target="_blank">Boozet.com</a> and is a freeware  however you can <a href="http://boozet.com/donate.htm" target="_blank">donate</a> to help the  author continue to develop such applications. </p>
<p>Double Driver is a simple and  easy to use utility which scans your machine for installed devices and drivers and  backs them up, print the list of devices with driver information, save the  information in text files, copies computer settings and files to be transferred  to any other machine.</p>
