    (Posted by an unknown user) "What an utterly useless advertising-filled waste of webspace." I concur this is about as usefull as the microsoft website. This error even pops up with drivers that i know for a fact do work just fine. All it it is MS forcing every one to sign their drives with them its has nothing to do with faulty drivers. now a useful article would have dircibed to how to get rid of this iritating and useles check.
