To avoid problems between Windows and the hardware, you should always check that your drivers are up to date. We will show you the exact procedure.
Check driver for currentness
In this guide, we will install the drivers manually. However, you can also leave this task to software. This is where the Driver Booster Free comes in handy.
- Press the [Windows] and [R] keys simultaneously so that the "Execute" command opens.
- Enter "devmgmt.msc" here and confirm with "OK". Then the device manager starts.
- Under the individual categories you can now find any installed hardware. In this example, we just want to update the graphics card driver.
- Right-click on the installed graphics card under the "Graphics card" category.
- Then select the "Update driver software" option in the context menu.
- If you then click "Automatically search for the latest driver software", Windows starts the search. If software was found, you can install it. If not, close the window again.
- You can now carry out these steps for all other important hardware components.
