You visit your manufacturer's website (for a Dell/HP/Acer/etc) and download the latest drivers and BIOS available for your computer. Or, you visit the manufacturer website for each component (motherboard, video card, etc) and download the latest drivers (and you download the latest BIOS from the motherboard manufacturer).
