Driver wiz get the *** out and let me get my drivers idiots....

Driver wiz I just want to down load my driver > you can get the *** out of my way. Driver wiz must really be hard up to take peoples money!!! Driver wiz comes up everytime I am down loading a free driver and takes over the download. So what happens you end up down loading driver wiz and it tells you the drivers you need according to driver wiz ha! ha! then they want money to get the drivers you have already located and decided to down load. This is a *** and a sham and a shame.... Ge the *** out of my way...

I am tired of this hoax. And this is allowed by Microsoft.

Everytime I go to Microsoft the page send me to one of those very Expensive so called free programs. I need a driver to fix unwanted problems blamed on Microsoft but they don´t help just put me on hands of this cheaters like the so called Driver wiz

DO NOT PURCHASE 'DRIVER WHIZ'

I purchased this product for $39.90 (PayPal) in order to resolve a driver problem with my CD drive. Driver Whiz diagnosed my PC and instructed me to "fix" (click) on all items listed. Not only did it not resolve my original problem, it wiped out my HP Photosmart printer (that Driver Whiz identified as having an out of date driver in need of updating). When I contacted Customer Support, I received a 4-page response advising me to modify my Windows Registry (like I am a computer programmer). Of course, I could not print their instructions because they wiped out my printer. (FYI - My IT manager at work advised me to NEVER mess around with the Windows Registry). I have asked for a refund from Driver Whiz and have been ignored to 2 weeks now. This company is a SCAM!

Driver Whiz

It is the worst program I ever tried, after installing the suggested drivers it tooks one hour to recover the disaster Driver Whiz created on my computer. Please, AVOID BUYING IT and even less INSTALLING IT. I have installed it before reading all these comments, I wish I had done it before, not only I have lost 40$ (I accepted to extend for one more year the validity of mu subscription) but I have lost my nerves while trying to repair the disaster. The problem I had and I still have, is with my new bluetooth that according to Driver Whiz was ok but it doesn't work anfd it detected that my Nvidia driver was outdated which it is not according to Nvidia. It is a real and true swindle

Driver Whiz not user friendly & no support

I was looking for a driver for a new PCMCIA cardbus that was not recognized by my Sony Vaio laptop. After downloading, paying for and registering Driver Whiz, there is no obvious way to use the program. The software is not intuitive at all, and there is no telephone support. From the comments of other users, it seems there is no email support response either. Driver Whiz knows how to take your money very quick and easily, but they do not know how to make the program user friendly. They are very poor business people and do not deserve your money or mine.

I too fell victim to DriverWhiz...after repeated e-mails to them about issues such as It Does Not work I did not hear from them. I asked for a refund and heard nothing.

I purchased with American Express.

I went to A/E too dispute the purchase. They did credit my account for the purchase price and so far I still have the refund.

4 Nov. 2010 15:05:38 AEDT Transaction ID: 8716****H228****A I did download that software, installed and scanned my Pc.

It found 18 programs or software without up to date drives. I bought that software. Scanned again and did tray to fix that problems. But it told me my programs have drivers later then that Drivers Whiz has.

It wasn't in case wit my Printer. It gave me possibility to update driver and after I did my Printer stoped to work. I spent money and got noting. I need my money back.

I did tray to contact that seller but has not got the answer. Iven Paypal gave me no shanse to complain.

DRIVER WHIZ

The time it took to restore what DRiver Whiz removed completely is to long to retype. I don't want to suffer through it again. I have not had any response to my request for a refund which started the day I purchased it. They are ignoring my requests for a refund completely. Don't use this product. go to the manufacuturers website and get the driver from them. YOu cannot trust this company and you will have wasted your time and money. The first two responses from them did not even come close to solving the problems with it.

Another customer feeling ripped off!

I was having problems with my new PCI Firewire 1394 card so I started looking around for a fix. I came acorss their website and I ran their evaluation thing and it said there were updated drivers for my 1394 card and since my current driver was from 2001, I paid for their software. Once I had downloaded it,I ran the updater and now it says there is no updated driver for my card. So I paid for nothing. What a rip!!! Don't have anything to do with this company, is my advice. I emailed their support three days in a row and they never got back to me, not once. I am going to dispute the charge on my credit card.

Driver Whiz doesn't work

Driver whiz came up as a FREE software application when a camcorder I was trying to download into my computer wouldn't load: so I naively went through the DriverWhiz steps. It found problems it could fix at a cost of $39.00. Cheaper than a VCR/DVD to transfer annalog to digital. Stupidly I paid - got stuck when asked for a p.w. never asked for during purchasing. I was unable to access "software" - e-mails not helpful - same directions to same page. Scared to put in the pw they finally sent two days late now that I know they are unresponsive to problems and read other complaints about how their system messes up computers. Paypal doesn't refund for software - so I am out $40 like a lot of other suckers out there - not worth it.

And another *** added to the list of the ignorant who pay for something they can get for free if they only had a little patience and could read.

Do you people have money to throw in the street? Obviously you do.

Who made yer sound card. I can take a good guess. But lets see just how *** and lazy you are.

When you know who made is type that in to the google search field and BOOOM you got some hits.

Whats the model number of your card?

type that in to a google search field and BOOM you get som hits.

Why did you buy a computer in the first place? I mean you can still buy p o r n on DVD so why do you need to look at it on the net?

Took my money w/o final authorization from me

As with many other consumers, im pissed off too at DRIVERS WHIZ. I feel they charged my debit card before i got a chance to make a final decision. I thought i would have the chance to make a final decision but they took the money as soon as they had my card number Also they added an addition $10.00 for a 2 yr. update option which i did'nt select, apparently it was hidden in one of those small boxes you have to mark. Also several peple in the comments needed their email address, its (support@***.com)

Driver Whiz is nothing but ***, you will never be satisfied with it. If you are smart, don't even think of buying this. If you think of buying this, maybe you can think to donate those money to something else, where you don't expect to get anything for the money.

Driver Whiz Ripoff

Terrible product. Sounds so easy to make my camera compatible with new Vista laptop. Can't even figure out what it does do and won't waste anymore time trying. Wish I'd read this!!! Anyone know how to get it off my system? Anyone know how to get my money back? I haven't been able to get a phone number to call anyone there to get this handled. Read on this board that going to Paypal will not get the refund. Perhaps someone knows how to get to the right place to find accountability and a refund for a product that I want to return? DC

What a Piece of CR*P, Stay Away !!!!

I paid his $29.95 and thought I was getting a good driver update software. Boy was I WRONG!!! What a piece of CR*P!!!!! My computer sits on the floor and I can't even get it to boot up. If you read these reviews, DON'T even think about trying this software!! I saw one good review and it was probably his only friend that wrote it and I bet they didn't even use the software. DON'T TRY IT !!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! You'll be sorry!! I am. The guy has the business set up so it doesn't go through him in any way. You can't get ahold of him and he doesn't respond. He's a *** artist and we've been taken. He needs to be removed from the business world. Pissed Off by an ***

This is not complaints, these are warnings. Just so other people don't do the same mistakes that some already done.

90% of all computer makes on this planet offer FREE driver updates. they even have written software that do it automaticly if you allow it.

Why would you throw yer money in the stree for something you can get for free?

Then you com ehre and complain about it? Dude grow the *** up and shut the *** up.

Driver Whiz is a deceptive rip-off. It doesn't work

Totally sucks. Misrepresented itself, I thought Viewsonic was actually partnering with them. There went $39 out the door. Links to the drivers it says I need are broken, and the driver I am sure I need - oh it said that was fine. Totally misleading advertising. Totally sucks.

I've actually gotten in the habit of only hitting the LOCK button on the remote one time when I leave the car; pressing it twice makes the horn chirp, and I would feel emasculated if one of the women at my apartment complex were to hear the pathetic sound that the stock horn makes.

Driver Whiz is worthless. PayPal is an accomplice to fraud.

driver whiz downloaded one outdated driver for my sound system which I had to delete and replace. The software is a fraud. PayPal will not even consider a refund because they say that they only guaranteed delivery and not quality of products. So Driver Whiz can just continue using PayPal as a collection agency for their criminal enterprise with complete impunity. I am more disgusted with PayPal. There are no good reviews of Driver Whiz any where and a lot of obvious complaints. You would think that after a certain number of complaints, that PayPal would at least stop collecting money for Driver Whiz even if they did not refund anything to past victims.

Data Whiz is a huge scam, trying to upsell additional services for large extra fees. The so-called technician refused to let me speak, talking over me from his script even as I was SCREAMING in his ear to stop, close the internet session now.

If paypal wont give refund then they are a bad business! I hate *** scams and no one doing *** to stop them.

But then they will try and stop Any american from doing petty *** that doesnt earn that much money *** THE GOD DAMNED USA! I HATE THIS *** PLACE

I was scammed by driver whiz. The driver whiz scan supposedly detected 18 driver errors.

After purchasing the program (credit card), I ran the scan again and the same 18 driver errors came up.

My computer still has its original driver problem. There is no way to contact them to get my money refunded.

Driver Whiz - claims to update drivers, well it doesn't!!

I purchased Driver Whiz via Paypal to upgrade my digital camera driver. It kept saying I had to install the driver on my computer before it could upgrade it. Dah!! The driver was installed. Driver Whiz just couldn't upgrade it. Not only could it not accomplish that task, it couldn't up grade any of the other drivers on my computer. A quick trip to Best Buy solved the problem with a digital card reading adapter. Wish I'd thought of that sooner. Now I have to work with Paypal to get my money back. I've also e-mailed Driver Whiz to advise them of the problem. It's been more than a week and I have received no response to my inquiries.- Demi

Beware of Driver Whiz refund offer

This software does nothing more than Dell Support offers for free to any Dell computer owner. A couple of the drivers I did install using the program messed up my computer. I've sent several emails over the last few days asking for a refund. The information on the website makes it sound like a refund will be made if you are not pleased with the program. All I keep getting back is a template telling me how to install the register key. I had no problem doing that. I feel this company is a scam and other reviews I've read seem to agree.
