to correctly install and run.
To obtain the latest drivers released for your specific laptop model, you will go to the
manufacturer’s website, for ex: Sony.com or Dell.com…
Once at their main page of the website, you will look for a ―Services & Supportǁ or ―Drivers
& Downloadsǁ or similar to get to their Drivers Page for your model. Next, you will be allowed to
choose your Laptops model number and series number. There will usually be a list to choose from or
an Auto Detect feature on that Web Page. Once at your Drivers Web Page, you can see the list of all
your drivers such as Ethernet, Chipset, Audio, Wi-Fi, BIOS, etc…
Download one or all of them, and if needed, you might have to flip through the different operating
system versions to find all the drivers… there will be a place somewhere on that page to change what
operating system version the drivers are for…
If installing from a USB device, make sure that you set the BIOS
setting to allow the laptop to boot to that USB device first.
