To use the Driver Recovery CD(s)
The Driver Recovery CD utility enables you to reinstall individual drivers and
repair software applications if they become corrupted or are erased. You can
reinstall an individual driver to correct a problem that you are experiencing with

application repair utility, uses a vault feature on the Driver Recovery CD during
