How to Update Device Driver in Windows 7

Updating  device drivers is usually the first step in dealing with any hardware-related problems. You can visit the manufacturer’s web site and download the driver manually, or you can let Windows 7 update the driver for you. Here are the steps:

  1. Click on the Windows logo on the task bar and type in device manager. The Device Manager shows up. Click on it to run.
  2. Right click on the device you are interested in and select Update Driver Software… .
  3. Click on Search automatically for updated driver software.
  4. When it finds an updated driver, the driver is downloaded and installed automatically. You can reboot the computer after the driver is successfully installed.

    I have Open GL problem in hp dv6. Drivers are up to date in both device manager method & hp’s support site. Is there any other way?

    • amida168 says:

      You can check Intel’s web site if your dv6 uses Intel graphics card, or AMD’s web site if it uses ATI graphics card.
