Bob -- Agreed that we download the latest driver install package from the
OEM website.
What I'm asking is which technique do you prefer :
1. using Device Manager to Update Driver Software and then Browse to the
folder of the driver package downloaded from the OEM website
2. if an .exe installer is provided in the OEM install package, then run it
directly and let it handle everything for you
There is a difference.
