It seems to do a good job and save time and effort. I have reinstalled DSA and am now quite happy to leave it installed. Tr圓 - I agree with your comment " DSA is doing all the above for you so it can be regarded as a useful utility" and you seem to have gone to a lot of effort which I am not prepared to do. I have found it best to keep a folder of all drivers split into Dell's subsections then further split into each hardware item within it then further split into each driver I have bothered downloading - so It looks like this It might merely be the date when Dell last validated its driver database. The 'Release date' is not explained anywhere but seems to bear no relation to the item that it relates to. ġ you can sort them into date order by clicking on the Release date column, thenĢ for each entry in turn, click on the down arrow on the right-hand side of the line, thenģ right-click on View full driver details & select Open in new tab, thenĤ look at the version number and compare it to the version number for that item shown in Device manager, thenĥ if the version number shows that it is later than the one you have, download & install the item.ĭSA is doing all the above for you so it can be regarded as a useful utility.

Start by going to the Drivers & downloads section using your Dell Service Tag, a unique identifying code for your computer. My previous post, even after amendment, was incomplete. No, all you need to do to achieve as much as DSA does get drivers specific to your computer is go to the Drivers & downloads section using your Dell Service Tag, a unique identifying code for your computer.
