Sometimes from friends you can hear conversations that the disk with the drivers for the video card was lost, and reinstalling the operating system is no longer a joy. Indeed, the loss of drivers from the computer is a negative fact. But this is not a desperate situation. A utility for scanning a personal computer can help you find drivers.
Necessary
Everest Ultimate Edition software
Instructions
Step 1
Before starting the video driver update process, you need to identify the company that made your video adapter. Today there are 2 big companies: GeForce from NVidia or Radeon from ATI. If it is not possible to open the side wall of the system unit, do the following: click the "Start" menu - "Run" (the key combination Win + R). A window will appear in front of you - enter the dxdiag command.
Step 2
You will see a window titled "DirectX Diagnostic Tool" - go to the "Display" tab - the name of the card will be visible in the "Device" block.
Step 3
After determining the brand of the video card, you need to find out the bit depth of your operating system. This is done as follows: click the "Start" menu - the "Run" item (the key combination Win + R). A window will appear in front of you - enter the command winver. If you have a 64-bit version of the operating system, then the system name will be supplemented, otherwise the system name will not change.
Step 4
Launch the Everest Ultimate Edition software. After a few seconds, device scanning will end. Click in the sidebar "Computer" - "System" - "Video". The right side of the program will display data on this device. At the bottom of this list, there will be a link to update your drivers. Follow this link.
Step 5
You will be taken to the official website of the manufacturer of your video card. To download the required driver, specify the version of the operating system and click on the link.
