One of the main advantages that I always associate with Macs and OSX, besides the obvious better OS is the lack of worrying about drivers and compatibility. Sure Macs still use drivers, every computer does, but every time a new piece of hardware is installed in Windows you have to find the drivers blah blah. But if you are one of those people still having to deal with Windows here are some sites that might aid you greatly in terms of getting those hard to find drivers. You know, for those old floppy drives that you suddenly remembered you needed to use to pull those important files off the 10 year old computer that has been in the same place for 8 years. So here are two helpful sites:

• Driver Guide - So if you were smart enough to simply type “driver” into Google this is the first site that will popup. This really isn’t a novel site, it has the drivers and you can download them. All the drivers (or at least the ones I looked at) were free, and registering for the site is free as well. So for your driver needs this is definitely the best bet.
• Microsoft - Now you know I really dislike Microsoft and their products, so I don’t care for their site that much. The navigation takes some thought and there is just so much content that getting to what you specifically need can be a challenge. Nonetheless this should be your first stop for drivers related to any of Microsoft’s software (i.e. Windows). So check them out for software related drivers, and go to Driver Guide for anything related to hardware etc.

These are just some quick tips of finding drivers so if you know of any other site that has some really good resources about drivers and/or where to get them please leave them in the comments below.
