i hope this helps.
The term "Drivers” is meaningless unless one associates it BOTH with an Operating System AND a specific item of Hardware. There is no such thing as' just' a "Driver”. There are XP VGA LAN Drivers, Vista VGA Drivers, Windows7 Audio Drivers, and Mac OSX Tiger WLAN Drivers. Mac OSX Leopard Epson Sx100 Printer Drivers, Mac OSX Lion Webcam Drivers, Linux Red Hat Midi Controller Drivers, Linux Ubuntu Media Player Drivers, etc. Drivers ONLY enable SPECIFIC Devices to function with SPECIFIC Operating Systems for which both Drivers and Devices were intended and designed. Drivers can almost NEVER solve problems in Operating Systems for which either the Drivers and/or the Devices were NOT intended or designed. There is a certain category of non-Operating System-dependent Drivers called LEGACY Drivers that can sometimes be immaterial to which Operating System is in use, but such Drivers tend to be BIOS Drivers for simple, generic, commonplace hardware such as USB PORTS and PS/2 and AT PORTS (pre-USB Mouse and Keyboard Ports), rather than more complex Operating System-dependent Devices. Even where this is not the case, such Legacy Drivers tend to be for Devices with old redundant technology such as Motherboard Risers, Sister and Daughter boards, old (pre-PCI) AT Technology (as opposed to the current ATX), ISA Slot Devices and occasional old, basic, 2Mb, 4Mb and 8Mb PCI and AGP Technology Video Cards. Although (Device) Drivers seem to mainly be about HARDWARE, they are actually mainly about SOFTWARE. A Driver does not physically control Devices. The BIOS and the Operating System do. What a Driver does is (just like a BILINGUAL human INTERPRETER for a Guest and a Host, in circumstances where the Guest can only communicate in a language that his Host can neither speak nor understand), is to introduce the Device to the Operating System and then provide ongoing assistance to both parties, so that they can communicate with one another, with the Driver taking instructions from BOTH and passing it back and forth between the two. So, when one mentions Drivers, one must also mention the Operating System they will be talking to. In order for that to be possible, the two must share a common language. If they do not, then the role of 'interpreter' is impossible, because, then neither Driver nor Device will be able to understand what the Operating System is saying. Many inexperienced (and even some experienced but unwise) users spend long, frustrating and, ultimately, pointless hours browsing and searching online, wandering in a daze from site to site and link to link, for Drivers that quite simply DON'T exist, have NEVER existed and will NEVER exist. Often they are spurred on by naive, ill-informed, hope-resurrecting commentary in online forums and unscrupulous, misleading advertising by bait and switch websites (which operate by luring gullible people in by claiming to have one rare product, with the hidden, ulterior motive of selling them a different, widely available and often totally unrelated and unhelpful product). A fairly good rule of thumb in searching for Drivers is that if you haven't found a link to them after scrolling through 2-3 Search Pages and by browsing 2-3 of the most likely websites, including the manufacturer's own site (search on their Global site - if they have one - to maximise the ambit of the search and increase its potential likelihood of meeting with success), then, the chances are, that the Driver does not exist.
