Update Your Drivers Automatically
Let’s face it. Drivers are important. Every bit as important as everything else running on your machine. These make your software interface with your hardware, and if the stuff that is holding the seams together is slow, you can’t hold much guarantee for the end product.
Slow drivers can mean a lot of things. It can mean that your hardware won’t be fully utilised to their full capacities. Or even worse, it could mean that your hardware might be performing at critically deteriorated performance levels. It might even be detrimental to your system’s performance. You obviously don’t want that to happen.
The only problem with this entire issue, apart from the lack of awareness, is that it’s just too tedious to manually sit down and install drivers for all your system’s individual components. Making a long, winding list of your hardware components with their model numbers, visiting your respective manufacturers’ websites, and downloading and installing those drivers can be a major pain, especially in a country like India, where the broadband penetration is as low as it already is.
Fortunately, companies that are making and maintaining your hardware, like Intel, recognise this. And they’ve made a tool that updates your drivers automatically. Called the official Intel Driver Update Utility, it does exactly what it’s meant to do. Just go to http://www.intel.com/p/en_US/support/detect. Now would be a good time, yes.
