You can do this manually by looking up the drivers one by one online and getting the driver from the hardware manufacturer\'s website or you can use our product Driver Reviver which will do it for you (although it is not free).

Hi Maria, Just a quick suggestion in addition to Mark\'s answer. If you\'ve just started experiencing this error, it may be due to recent hardware or software changes on your laptop. You can try uninstalling or undoing these changes if you recall what they are. Alternatively, we recommend that you restart your computer and attempt to either \"refresh\" or \"restore\" your laptop. You won\'t lose your data. Here\'s an excellent guide to get you started: http://windows.microsoft.com/en-US/windows-8/restore-refresh-reset-pc Good luck! James
