    Does Windows 7 automatically install drivers?


    Hi,

    I'm a noob here so go easy please

    Ok so I got an MSDN membership for my birthday (Thanks Dad ) and I'm now downloading Windows 7 Ultimate 64bit.

    It should install them automatically, but its always a good idea to have them on hand in case you need them..

    Windows Seven comes with a ton of drivers for a lot of different hardware. Some are generic drivers that the hardware would be better served by going directly to the manufaturers site for updated drivers and others are fine. You can run the windows upgrade advisory tool to find out ahead of time if your going to run into any issues.
