IMO it would be a waste of money to purchase Driver Detective. I started to say that
it was not likely a driver problem, because software does not normally go bad, but
files can become corrupted, so it was possible. But if you stop and think, Driver
Detective really didn't solve your problem. Cards don't ordinarily unseat themselves,
but whenever you move a computer, there is always a risk of that happening.
