Best website for drivers?

Any recommendations for a well-organised site for downloading drivers
(including ancient ones) without the nuisances that accompany some of them?

From the manufacturer.

For others, Google for drivers.

Generally the ONLY source for drivers is the hardware manufacturer.

For older drivers:
http://www.driverguide.com/
http://www.driverscollection.com/

There is no central web site.

You might also check www.driverguide.com . You have to register at the
site, but it is free. You will find a great deal of common drivers listed
there.

Thanks - diverguide is the best of the ones I've used so far, but I'm glad
of the endorsement!

Thanks! I'd used driverguide.com, but the other was new to me.

Is there a way of salvaging drivers from a machine you plan to reinstall?
