ow to update drivers on Windows 7 is not difficult and is only required when a hardware device can not be installed automatically. Update drivers also performed when hardware has some kind of problem, or as part of some other problems with hardware drivers. Compared with Windows XP for example, update drivers on Windows 7 is still a lot easier.
Follow these easy steps to update the driver from the Device Manager in Windows 7 step by step:
1. Download the latest drivers from the hardware manufacturer's website. What are the drivers from the manufacturer diibutuhkan the most recent date but there are several other driver options that can be downloaded. As part of the process of updating drivers, you can choose to update hardware drivers from the installation CD or from Windows Update.
2. Open Device Manager from Control Panel in Windows 7. Note: There are also several other ways to open Device Manager in Windows 7 but do it from the Control Panel is probably the easiest.
3. By opening Device Manager, look for hardware that you want to update the driver. Note: Navigation from the hardware category by clicking the icon ">". Hardware drivers are listed under the major hardware categories.
4. After finding the hardware to update your drivers, right click on the name of the hardware or the icon and select [Properties]. In the Properties window, click the [Driver].
5. Click the [Update Driver]. Note: Driver Software Update Wizard will start.
6. In the window: "How do you want to search for driver software?", Click on "Browse my computer for driver software".
7. In the next window labeled "Browse for driver software on your computer", click on "Let me pick from a list of device drivers on my computer", which is located at the bottom of the window.
8. Click the [Have Disk] located below the text box.
9. Click the [Browse ...] on the "Install From Disk" has been emerging. In the dialog box "Locate File" next appears, navigate to the folder that you extract as part of the driver in Step 1 above. There may be several folders in the extracted folder so make sure you choose the appropriate folder. Do not worry if you do not find a label for Windows 7.
10. Click the INF file is displayed in the file list and click the [Open]. Note: INF files are the only files that received the Device Manager to setup the driver information.
11. Click [OK] to return to the dialog box [Install From Disk].
12. Choose new hardware added in the text box and then click the [Next>]. If you are prompted with a warning message about how the device driver may not be compatible with your hardware, click the Yes button to continue installing the driver. Many drivers are not Windows 7 certified but still very safe to be installed.
13. Windows 7 Update Driver Software Wizard will now use the instructions provided in the INF file from Step 10 to install the latest drivers for your hardware.
14. Follow the additional instructions on the screen to complete the driver update process.
15. You may be prompted to restart your computer after the driver update is complete.
Note: Not all drivers updates require restarting your computer. Even if you are not asked, I always recommend a restart. Driver update process involves changes to the Windows Registry and other important areas of your computer and restarting is a good way to confirm that the driver update does not negatively affect several other areas of Windows. If updated drivers are having problems, you can always rollback the driver.
