Note that Windows does not automatically check the manufacturer’s
site for the latest drivers. Instead, it relies on the drivers that have
been checked in to its driver database — and many of those drivers are
weeks, months, or years out of date.
If you continue to have driver problems, go directly to the manufacturer’s
Web site and follow its instructions to download and install the latest.
