    I ran an AVG driver check. It said I had 20 drivers out of date. I am not having any problem. Should I replace the drivers or is this a scam to make money? Thanks

    If it ain't broke, don't fix it. Only when you are having a problem with something is my motto. Then only the thing that I am having problems with. While some driver updates may make something run smoother/better, I have seen it break it also.

    Hi cbumpkin. Do NOT use any Driver Updater programs on your system. Uninstall that AVG Driver Updater from your system as these programs will not improve your computers performance or stability and can make your system LESS reliable.

    There is no need to run these types of applications as they are useless and as long as your computer is running with no problems then its a waste of your time to use these scam programs.

    Mr. Bill: I just asked the forum If I needed to upgrade
    drivers Because AVG said the were out of date. Neil. Evan and you all said " if it aint't broke don't fix it ". I replied "Well it ain't broke "

    I thought that was the answer to my question. I marked Problem resolved and checked out. Best regards, cbumpkin
