    A Buffer Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    B Driver Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    C Pager Correct Answer Incorrect Answer
    D Server Correct Answer Incorrect Answer

    Solution

    Explanation: A Driver is a software program that allows the computer's operating system to communicate with a hardware device, such as a printer, scanner, or graphics card. Without the proper driver, the device will not function correctly. Drivers translate high-level commands into hardware-specific instructions. Why the Other Options Are Incorrect? Buffer – A temporary storage area, not related to installing a device. Pager – A memory management scheme, not related to hardware installation. Server – A computer that provides services to other computers, not relevant here. Final Answer: Driver
