My hard drive crashed about a month ago,
and I got a new one thanks to a warranty.
However, now all my drivers that I had for
my external devices (hp Printer, TEAC
floppy drive, Iomega zip disk) are gone. Is
there one place I can go to get these
without going through pages and pages
of knowledge based questions, or without
going to each web site and downloading
them?Thanks in advance,
Alex

So,....you HAD all the drivers you NEED at one point, and
you didn't save them to a CD or something?
Nah, why would you want to do that?

Dont you still have the CD's or floppy's of those devices? they will have the drivers with them. also if you need individual device drivers from the system cd a copy of "TomeViewer" is very Handy.
A Great Back up to have is to set up your System compleatly and all things are just where you want them, "then burn a CD" of it and make it "Bootable" and if you ever have a Virus or somthing that absolutly stumps you, you can eather trash everything and "drag off" of your bootable CD everything to your Hard drive or just the parts you need that might have gotten corrupted.Saves tons of time....! Note: If you have a Larger drive than say 2Gig Use separate Applications on other partitions and keep your System Folder and Apps to a Minimum
say 500 Meg or less so you can get it all onto a CD.Of cource the Partition that hold those needs to be 1.5Gig or better to create the Burn document on as well.I Know Deep huh... =)
