basic check around every 6-8 Month check for your system for updates on hardware.

*Windows update "Must"
*Mother broad MFG Model Number:

Some times good to check for flash Drivers for you DVD/CD Writer for newer Flash drivers, if your having trouble with the item. if no trouble no real need to check for them updates. good sample say you been uising a older windows OS system and upgrade to a newer Windows System but, it can't tell or see your DVD/CD drive check for a newer Flash driver for it, basic you put it on a floppy then keep it in the floppy drive (A: ) restart your system it will go throu the steps to update the DVD/CD drive, you follow the steps it walk you through

go to the DVD/CD Drive MFG site and lookup your model you got and check for newer Flash Drive for your unite.

reason some times updating your bois and chipset will tell how to handle new version of Hardware how to handle them types PCIe, PCI, COM,...ect

if you got a new totally Computer system totally new! best check all updates from the MFG and Windows this way help to clear error and make the system run better.
