Should You Use the Hardware Drivers Windows Provides, or Download Your Manufacturer’s Drivers?

Should You Use the Hardware Drivers Windows Provides, or Download Your Manufacturer’s Drivers?: "Hardware drivers are the software that allow your operating system to communicate with your hardware. Windows includes built-in drivers and automatically downloads new ones to make setup easier, but device manufacturers also provide their own driver packages.

The default drivers Microsoft provides are stripped down and a bit older, but they’re written by your device manufacturer — not Microsoft themselves. They’re often good enough, but sometimes you’ll want the complete package or a driver Windows can’t provide."
