Hello, i need help to figure if i need to download drivers to my computer. i have wiped the hard drive and im going to install windows 7 ultimate edition on it, but i dont know if i need to download anything for it like drivers, or anything else i dont know about. It's a dell dimension 3000 with a celeron processor.
Unlikely. WIn7 installer is mostly driver-complete, with newer arriving quickly via optional Windows Updates when you enable hardware auto-updating: Automatically get recommended drivers and updates for your hardware
Any drivers then missing in Device Manager can be found on the Dell Support Downloads webpage for your model.
I would not change out any driver given by installer/updates unless performance problems point to the driver.
