Windows Updates

Windows Updates not only update your computer to the most recent version of the operating system they also provide a method to keep the drivers on your computer current.

The drivers will depend on the hardware that you are using. Therefore it is good idea to run the optional updates so that the driver/hardware related drivers are downloaded.

Some specific device functionality cannot be made to work by applying Windows updates. Often a BIOS update needs to be made. An example of this is the activation and recognition of 6 and 8 cores in processors that are so equipped.
