How to update windows 7 driver: 
Drivers are very useful software which helps the operating system to communicate with the hardware and tell the hardware components of the computer system how to operate or work. The hardware components include various devices like sound card, DVD/CD player, video card, graphics card, sound card etc. Basically, these drivers fully control, maintain and manage a device and every computer device should have a driver of its own to work properly and efficiently. Many drivers come with the windows operating preinstalled others have to be manually downloaded and installed according to the need.  
When a new device is connected to the computer that’s where you come to know whether the device driver is installed on your device or not.
