17. A method, comprising the steps of:
-
monitoring an operational state of a device driver installed on a first computer;
storing standard diagnosis information of said device driver on a second computer, said standard diagnosis information being when an operational state of said device driver is normal;
networking said first computer with said second computer;
outputting said monitored device driver information from said monitoring of the operational state of said device driver;
sending said monitored device driver information from said first computer to said second computer;
comparing said standard diagnosis information with said monitored device driver information to confirm any error with said device driver;
displaying instruction for correcting the error of said device driver when the error is not automatically correctable; and
correcting the error of said device driver when the error is automatically correctable.
