The amount of time the feature waits to wake your computer can be set using the “Change Settings” option on the main user interface. With Intel Smart Connect Technology, you do not have to wait for your applications to update when you wake up your computer. Intel® Smart Connect Technology automatically updates applications, such as e-mail and social networks, when your computer is asleep. This function works with applications that automatically get their data from the Internet, such as Outlook* and Windows* Live Mail. Maintaining a driver backup provides you with the security of knowing that you can rollback any driver to a previous version (if necessary).Intel® Smart Connect Technology is designed to update programs by periodically waking your computer from sleep/standby mode for a short time. An update program not only provides the right drivers that are compatible with your hardware, but it also guarantees that there is a backup of current drivers before any changes are made. You can only make your problems worse if you install the wrong driver for your hardware.īecause of the time and complexity involved in updating drivers, we highly recommend using a driver update software. While finding, downloading, and manually updating your Smart Connect Technology drivers takes a lot of time, the process can also be confusing. It can be incredibly difficult to find the exact driver for your Smart Connect Technology -based hardware unit, even directly on the website of Intel or a related manufacturer.

You shouldn't be concerned because you can update your Software drivers as a prevention measure. Device drivers can fail without any apparent reason. Smart Connect Technology errors often stem from incompatible or outdated device drivers. Smart Connect Technology driver updates can be carried out manually with the Windows Device Manager, or automatically by downloading a driver update software utility.
