Hi people....
I was wondering if any of you would be kind enough to help me with a question I have.
(Please bare in mind I know next to nothing about windows OR drivers!)
Now, I have an Elonex Artsan lx HTPC and have recently upgraded from XP to W7. I had to do a clean install as the upgrade required this from XP. Even though every thing SEEMS to be working o.k., I am unsure as to whether I have the correct drivers installed, especially the chipset drivers. I have Windows 7 Home Premium upgrade installed, and the only drivers I had to look for after install was the Realtek Audio and Hauppage TV Cards, everything else seemed to be already in windows.
Now here is my question, didWindows install the best available drivers for my computer, or just the bare minimum?? I have tried to see if there are any chipset drivers I can install, but it has been so confusing with all the web articles, and not one gives a good answer.
The chipset in my PC is an Intel 915G, and I have looked on the intel website, downloaded the utility etc and am still none the wiser.
I hope someone may be kind enough to:-
1. Actually understand what I'm saying (he-he!)
and 2. Help me!
p.s. when I looked on the intel website, it said that the 915g had a chipset driver for windows 7 32 bit, but not windows 7 32 bit home premium. Is it because they are already included in W7HP?
Thanks for any help in advance,
Kind regards,
AKH
