If you are encountering unpredictable errors, lockups, or BSODs in Windows Vista, chances are that you’re system is suffering from the effects of a faulty third-party driver. As you know, the device drivers that come with Microsoft Windows Vista have a digital signature that indicates that the driver has met a certain level of testing and that it has not been altered. You also know that any hardware that carries a Certified for Windows Vista logo will come with drivers that have a digital signature from Microsoft which indicates that the product was tested for compatibility with Windows Vista.
Fortunately, Vista comes with a great utility called the Driver Verifier Manager.
