This means that if you add a new device to your system that hasn't got a driver, your system will not know how to communicate with it. However, most devices come with device driver discs or tell you to go to their website, where you can download it from. An example of this is for Nvidia Graphics cards. Most Nvidia Graphics cards come with a driver disk, but also do have drivers on their website to download if your computer does not have a CD/DVD disk drive. The software also notifies the user that there is a driver update that needs to be installed or would improve performance.]]> 2017-10-05 11:13:28 UTC https://padlet.com/bro17001354/cq3pzfj6qxsq/wish/194237770
