Before updating your video drivers I recommend that you save your curent drivers (you may have more than one for the graphic subsystem) and set a restore point. If you do not know how to do that I do not recommend that you update your video driver manually.
1. When updating your video card driver manually you first open your control panel.
2. Next open the display properties and select the settings panel.
This will show you the video card model and manufacturer:
3. Next go to the video card manufacturer's site
Now that you know the model and manufacturer of your video card go to the manufacturer's web site. Use your favorite search engine to find the manufacturer's site.
Next navigate the site (typically it is downloads first then select model number and ultimately operating system).
Then download the new driver and run it by clicking on the driver. The whole process takes less than fifteen or so minutes. The problem is that if things go wrong they can really go wrong.
And suppose you mess up your sound card driver you lose your sound, but you can still restore your driver. But if your video card driver update goes wrong you may end up having no video and then where are you.
I imagine you can still boot up in the safe mode but I for one would rather not find out.
I hope it can help you a bit.
