IObit’s driver updating tool, Driver Booster, will continue support for Windows XP after Microsoft shuts it down in April 2014. According to IObit, the recently released Driver Booster v1.3 has been improved to provide better services for Windows XP users to get the right and latest drivers to enhance the system stability, PC performance, or even system security.
After April, Windows XP users will have to find and install the right drivers for their old Windows XP PC. Without up-to-date drivers, systems cannot run at its peak performance and might even suffer problems, which can lead to system slow down, crashes, and security holes.
Driver Booster can detect the outdated driver, then find and install the appropriate drivers according to PC requirements. Driver Booster is designed for gamers to enhance their gaming experience with the appropriate drivers for various graphic cards. In IObit’s plan, its database will be continuously expanded to deal with the potential problem caused by the termination of support for Windows XP.
“No matter which Windows operating system users are using, a regular check on drivers is always an essential and necessary way of PC maintenance,” says Antonio Zhang, the marketing director at IObit. “We found that about 60% of Windows XP users want to keep using Windows XP in our survey. We want to let them know what will happen and to get through this tough period together with them. If needed, our support will be permanent.”
Driver Booster v1.3 is available on IObit.com and Download.com. For Windows XP users, a giveaway of Driver Booster will be held on IObit Facebook Fan Page on March 20.
