How to Detect Driver Conflict
"A device driver is a program that allows Microsoft's Windows operating system (no matter the version) to utilize hardware on your computer. If a driver conflict is present, this means that something is wrong with the driver and Windows cannot properly utilize your hardware. You can detect these driver conflicts by entering the Windows Device Manager and then scanning for recent changes to that specific piece of hardware.
