Christopher Greer, bekend van onder andere de RVM Integrator, heeft een nieuw programma geschreven met de naam DriverGrabber. Het verzamelt de op de computer aanwezige drivers en plaatst deze in een folder netjes in aparte subfolders. Drivers die van Microsoft zelf komen worden daarbij overgeslagen. Dit programma is vooral handig voor mensen die aangepaste installatie-cd's maken en daar eigen drivers aan toe willen voegen. De software is slechts 196KB groot, maar heeft dan ook geen interface en er is geen controle over waar de drivers naar toe worden gekopieerd, namelijk in de folder van waaruit het gestart wordt. DriverGrabber is inmiddels aangekomen bij versie 0.4 beta en het changelog tot nu toe laat de volgende veranderingen zien:
Changes in verison 0.4 beta:Changes in verison 0.3 beta:
- Fixed some path bugs. Some drivers where not backed up because drivergrabber could not create a directory for the driver if they had certain symbols in their name. Thanks for your help pandera13!
- I also put an error check when the new directory is made according to the drivers name. Now if the directory can not be created then a msgbox will pop up stating the directory name that it failed to create. If you get this error message please post it here so I can add a check for the symbol that is messing up the directory creation.
- The Splash window now apears at the top of your desktop and not in the center. It also can now be moved around and placed wherever you want.
- The splash window would flash like crazy whenever it went to the next step... so I fixed this so that it doesn't flash and it is much nicer to look at.
Changes in verison 0.2 beta:
- Fixed grabbing of cat files. It should now correctly grab the cat files (as long as they exist... remember some drivers may not have had the cat files installed. If your cat file is not grabbed please search your harddrive for it or if your drivers inf file is named oem7.inf or simular search for oem7.cat etc...)
- DriverGrabber should scan for drivers better now. So those of you who had missing drivers... please try the new version and post back here.
- Splash window now shows progress.
- Added Siginet copyright info.

- Should now grab needed cat files.
- Better checking for Microsoft drivers so that it skips backing them up.
