What is a driver?

Device drivers are software programs that act like an interface between the computers operating system and the individual hardware devices that combine to form the computer, enabling all the components to talk to one another and work in harmony.

For example, with graphics cards, the device driver tells the operating system what settings it supports like; screen resolution, colour range, refresh rates, and so on.

Why might I need to update my drivers?

Even though all O.S. (operating systems) contain drivers for the most popular devices available, hardware manufacturers will sometimes update them to increase their performance.

Additionally, manufacturers will sometimes release a new hardware product before it's fully complete, meaning the drivers that came with the device will often contain errors and faults. To rectify this, the manufacturer will update the driver software, fixing any errors and make it available for the public to use.
