    Drivers needed after upgrade?


    Hi all,
    I will be receiving my w7 home premium upgrade today. I currently have a HP Pavillion DV4 laptop running vista home premium and i will be doing an inplace upgrade to w7 home premium, no reformat or anything. Will i have to reinstall drivers for my laptop? and if so is there a certain order i should follow when installing drivers? all help would be greatly appreciated.
