Not only gives it a list of every device, which manufacturer and the site to get the driver downloaded, but it also measures all of the temperatures of any piece of hardware in the PC.

Basically, download all the .7z files, extract them to a directory, and burn to a DVD. Now, whenever you have an unknown device, throw the DVD in, update the driver, and say 'search removable media'. It'll grind away for a minute or two, then install it! I've only ever had problems during recent Vista downgrades, or on the newest laptops. Also, I split the Graphics drivers (790 MB) to a DVD, and everything else to a CD - not as many drivers to go through when you're not doing graphics. I’ve really been enjoying Driverpacks lately.
