Assuming a usual PC, running Windows (NT5+), I think the easiest method would be to look at the device manager.
On your desktop, right-click and select properties on the "my computer" icon.

If not, then it should look online to Microsoft's servers and try to find a driver, but you need an active internet connection for that.
