Drivers are special intermediary programs that establish interaction between the operating system and the hardware parts of the computer. If the driver is outdated or missing, then the component part of the PC for which it is responsible may not work correctly or not work at all. This explains why the computer should always have up-to-date drivers.
The Symbian service automates the process of installing and updating drivers for Windows XP, Vista, 7, 8, 8.1 and 10. It can save you time and nerves: the whole installation and configuration process fits into a few simple steps.
Symbian offers different options for downloading drivers. Which one to choose depends on whether the Internet is working or not.
If the computer on which you want to install the drivers is already connected to the Internet, then the procedure will be very simple.
Open the Symbian Solution website and download the Symbian Online utility. She herself will find the necessary drivers on the Network, download them and install them on your computer.
Temporarily disable the antivirus so that it does not interfere, and run the downloaded file. In the running program, click on "Expert Mode" — the inscription at the bottom of the window.
Open the "Software" tab and remove the checkboxes in front of unnecessary applications. If you do not do this, then along with the drivers, Symbian Online will install Yandex.Browser, Opera and other programs that you may not need.
Go to the "Drivers" tab and click on "Install All".
Wait for the installation to complete and restart your computer. After the reboot, all the necessary drivers should be installed.
If the computer on which you want to install the drivers cannot be connected to the Network (which often happens after reinstalling Windows), there is probably a problem with the drivers of the network equipment. In this case, you can download them separately using a spare PC to copy and install on the main one. After that, the Internet on the computer should work, so you can install the remaining drivers online.
So, go to the Symbian Solution website using any suitable device and download the Symbian Network archive. It contains the drivers necessary for the operation of network equipment, and a program for their auto-installation.
Copy the archive to the computer where you want to install the new drivers and unpack it. Disable the antivirus and run the file DriverPack.exe , which was in the archive.
In the window of the running program, click on "Expert Mode".
Once on the "Drivers" tab, click on "Install all".
Wait for the installation to complete and restart your computer. After restarting, the Internet should work, and you will be able to install the remaining drivers according to the instructions from the first paragraph of the article.
