		<description><![CDATA[<p>Thinking of upgrading your operating system to Windows 7? Good news. DriverCure can help.</p>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>I&#8217;m a few days late posting this, but&#8230;</p>
<p><a href="/drivercure/">DriverCure</a> now includes complete support for Windows<span class="reg">&reg;</span> 7, both 32-bit and 64-bit versions.</p>
<p>That&#8217;s good news if you&#8217;re considering upgrading to Windows 7, because you&#8217;re going to need lots of new drivers.</p>
<p>If you already have a registered version of DriverCure, you can click <strong>About</strong> on the main menu, then click <strong>Check for Updates&#8230;</strong> to update it (if it hasn&#8217;t already updated itself, that is).</p>
<p>Check out the full press release:</p>
<p><a href="http://paretologic.com/company/media/press_release_drivercure_windows7.aspx">Newest ParetoLogic DriverCure release ready to serve Windows<span class="reg">&reg;</span> 7 users</a></p>
<h2>Give DriverCure a go</h2>
<p>If you haven&#8217;t tried DriverCure, click the big red button below to download it directly from ParetoLogic&#8217;s secure server.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>DriverCure makes updating your drivers quick and easy. Check this out to see how it's done.</p>]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>DriverCure makes updating your drivers quick and easy.</p>
<p>In fact, it only takes a few mouse clicks to update all your drivers.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s how you do it&#8230;</p>
<h2><span>Step 1</span> &mdash; Create a system restore point</h2>
<p>I recommend you create a system restore point before installing new drivers.</p>
<p>And the good news is, DriverCure includes the option to automatically create system resource points before installing updates.</p>
<p>So, start DriverCure and click <strong>Settings</strong> at the top right of the main screen.</p>
<img src="/images/dc-install-driver-1.png" alt="creating a system restore point with DriverCure" width="550" height="150" class="screenshot" />
<p>Check the <strong>Set a system restore point before installing items</strong> option.</p>
<p>Click <strong>OK</strong>.</p>
<h2><span>Step 2</span> &mdash; Scan your computer for driver updates</h2>
<p>Click <strong>Start Scan</strong>.</p>
<p>The scan should take less than a minute.</p>
<h2><span>Step 3</span> &mdash; Choose the drivers to update</h2>
<p>The scan results screen will list all the available driver updates.</p>
<p>No updates are selected by default, so check the ones you want to update.</p>
<img src="/images/dc-install-driver-2.png" alt="Choose which drivers you want DriverCure to update" width="550" height="150" class="screenshot" />
<p>Although you can install as many drivers as you want, I’m just going to install one: a new keyboard driver.</p>
<h2><span>Step 4</span> &mdash; Download your driver</h2>
<p>Click <strong>Fix Now</strong>.</p>
<p>DriverCure will now download your new driver.</p>
<img src="/images/dc-install-driver-3.png" alt="DriverCure downloading a driver update" width="550" height="150" class="screenshot" />
<p>Some driver files are huge because they include the software to configure the hardware device.</p>
<p>Depending on the speed of your Internet connection it may take a minute or more to download your new driver.</p>
<h2><span>Step 5</span> &mdash; Confirm you want to install your new driver</h2>
<p>Once your driver has downloaded you&#8217;ll get a &#8220;Are you sure that you would like to install&#8221; message similar to the following:</p>
<img src="/images/dc-install-driver-4.png" alt="confirm you want DriverCure to install your new driver" width="550" height="150" class="screenshot" />
<p>Click <strong>Yes</strong>.</p>
<p>DriverCure will now extract the driver files and launch its installer&#8230;</p>
<img src="/images/dc-install-driver-5.png" alt="DriverCure extracting driver files" width="550" height="150" class="screenshot" />
<p>&#8230;except some drivers will be in the ZIP or RAR file format, which means DriverCure won&#8217;t be able to automatically launch the installer.</p>
<p>So you&#8217;ll have to unzip them before you install them. Check out <a href="/how-to-install-zipped-drivers/">How to install zipped drivers</a> if you&#8217;re not sure how to do it.</p>
<h2><span>Step 6</span> &mdash; Follow the installation instructions</h2>
<p>Now follow the instructions to install your driver.</p>
<p>Every installer is different, but it&#8217;s usually as simple as clicking &#8220;OK&#8221; a few times.</p>
<h2><span>Step 7</span> &mdash; Restart your computer</h2>
<p>After the installation process completes you&#8217;ll probably be prompted to restart your computer.</p>
<p>You can restart it now, or you can update more drivers. However, the new driver won&#8217;t work until you <em>do</em> restart it.</p>
<p>And that&#8217;s it. Done.</p>
<h2>Any questions?</h2>
<p>Please use the comments form below or <a href="/contact/">contact me</a> if you have any questions about using DriverCure.</p>
<h2>Give DriverCure a go</h2>

			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>If you like to keep your drivers and software up-to-date, then DriverCure makes it drop-dead simple.</p>
<p>And it gives you two ways to do it:</p>
<p>1. Schedule regular scans for updates.</p>
<p>Or, even easier&#8230;</p>
<p>2. Get DriverCure to send you an email whenever an update is available.</p>
<p>I&#8217;ll start with&#8230;</p>
<h2>Scheduled scans</h2>
<p>Start DriverCure and click <strong>Schedule</strong> on the main menu.</p>
<p>Then click <strong>New&#8230;</strong></p>
<p>It&#8217;s up to you how often you want to check for updates.</p>
<p>Twice a week sounds good to me, so I&#8217;m going for Monday and Thursday at 2pm.</p>
<img src="/images/dc-scheduled-scan-1.png" alt="setting up scheduled scans with DriverCure" width="550" height="200" class="screenshot" />
<p>You can also have DriverCure download any updates so they&#8217;re ready to install.</p>
<p>Click <strong>OK</strong> and your new schedule is set.</p>
<img src="/images/dc-scheduled-scan-2.png" alt="confirm DriverCure scheduled scans" width="550" height="150" class="screenshot" />
<p>That&#8217;s it.</p>
<p>And so on to&#8230;</p>
<h2>Email update notifications</h2>
<p>Click <strong>Settings</strong> at the top right of the screen.</p>
<p>Then click <strong>Email Settings</strong>.</p>
<img src="/images/dc-email-notifications-1.png" alt="DriverCure email notifications" width="550" height="150" class="screenshot" />
<p>Fill in your name and email address.</p>
<img src="/images/dc-email-notifications-2.png" alt="entering name and email details for DriverCure email notifications" width="550" height="200" class="screenshot" />
<p>The submit button appears after you&#8217;ve entered all your details.</p>
<p>Click <strong>Submit</strong>, then click <strong>OK</strong>.</p>
<p>And that&#8217;s it. Done.</p>

		<description><![CDATA[<p>Did you know DriverCure updates your software as well as your drivers? Here's how to get the latest software.</p>
]]></description>
			<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p>In <a href="/how-to-update-your-drivers-with-drivercure/">How to update your drivers with DriverCure</a> I installed a driver via the scan results screen.</p>
<p>To update my software I&#8217;m going to use the scan History screen.</p>
<p>As the name suggests, it lists previous scan results, plus downloaded and installed drivers and software.</p>
<p>It also includes details of your driver and software versions, and details of the updates. Useful stuff.</p>
<p>Here&#8217;s how you do it&#8230;</p>
<h2><span>Step 1</span> &mdash; Choose a previous scan</h2>
<p>Start DriverCure and click <strong>History</strong> on the main menu.</p>
<p>Click the <strong>blue arrows</strong> next to the history item you want to access.</p>
<img src="/images/dc-install-software-1.png" alt="Choose which software you want DriverCure to update" width="550" height="150" class="screenshot" />
<p>Now click on the <strong>plus symbol</strong> (+) to expend the results.</p>
<img src="/images/dc-install-software-2.png" alt="expand the results details" width="550" height="150" class="screenshot" />
<h2><span>Step 2</span> &mdash; Choose the software to update</h2>
<p>Once you&#8217;ve chosen what software to update, click on its <strong>Install</strong> link.</p>
<img src="/images/dc-install-software-3.png" alt="start the installation process" width="550" height="150" class="screenshot" />
<h2><span>Step 3</span> &mdash; Confirm and download your update</h2>
<p>You&#8217;ll now get a message asking if you&#8217;re sure you want to install the item.</p>
<img src="/images/dc-install-software-4.png" alt="confirm the installation process" width="550" height="150" class="screenshot" />
<p>Click <strong>Yes</strong> to continue.</p>
<img src="/images/dc-install-software-5.png" alt="DriverCure downloading software" width="550" height="150" class="screenshot" />
<p>DriverCure will now download your new software.</p>
<h2><span>Step 4</span> &mdash; Install your new software</h2>
<p>Once your software&#8217;s downloaded, DriverCure will open the download folder.</p>
<p>(The default download folder is <span class="wintext">C:\Documents and Settings\All Users\Documents\Downloads</span>.)</p>
<img src="/images/dc-install-software-6.png" alt="folder with downloaded software" width="550" height="150" class="screenshot" />
<p>Double click on the EXE file to start the installation.</p>
<p>Each program installs differently, so just follow the installer&#8217;s instructions.</p>
<h2><span>Step 5</span> &mdash; Repeat as necessary</h2>
<p>Unlike when you install drivers, you shouldn&#8217;t need to restart Windows.</p>
<p>So you can continue to update as many programs as you like.</p>
<p>And that&#8217;s it. Done.</p>
<h2>Any questions?</h2>
<p>Please use the comments form below or <a href="/contact/">contact me</a> if you have any questions about using DriverCure.</p>

<h2>Five top selling programs for the price of one</h2>

<p><strong>DriverCure</strong> updates your device drivers and your software. Plus it sends you an email when a new update is available. (Forget wasting hours searching the Net for updates. Sit back and relax while <a href="/drivercure/">DriverCure</a> does all the hard work for you.)</p>

<p><strong>XoftSpySE Anti-Spyware</strong> mercilessly searches for all the nasty crap people try to get onto your computer. Spyware, trojans, adware, hijackers, keyloggers&#8230; you get the picture. (Protect your self from malware and give cyber criminals the finger.)</p>
