Navigate to the Driver tab and note your GPU’s model and version number. Right-click your GPU (graphics card), and select Properties. (Or, type device manager into the Cortana search bar.) Open the Device Manager when the option appears. Open the Windows Start menu and type device manager. You need to know which version you have in order to check if your graphics driver is out of date. If you’re performing your own updates, you first need to find your graphics driver and identify its model and manufacturer. If you haven’t been keeping your drivers current, you’re likely overdue for an update.įortunately, the process for updating your graphics drivers, audio drivers, and all your other drivers is largely the same.

Hardware manufacturers frequently issue updates for their drivers to ensure your PC components deliver optimal performance. Or, if you want to find driver updates yourself (and know your graphics card’s model and manufacturer), skip straight to our section on manually updating your graphics driver. Most Dell color and black-and-white, laser and inkjet printers are supported in Windows 10 via one of those methods.If you already know that your driver needs to be updated, jump to our section on automatically updating your graphics driver. Printers are listed as either having web package availability (you can download Dell-made drivers via Drivers & Downloads), CD availability (drivers for this printer were included on the installation disc that came with the printer), or Windows Update availability (Microsoft included the best drivers for this printer in Windows 10, or they'll be downloaded via Windows Update when you connect the printer). Dell also keeps an updated Windows 10 and Windows 11 Compatibility with Dell Printers page that should be very helpful if you already know your Dell printer model number. Many Dell printer drivers for Windows 10 are also available from the same download page. Most newer Alienware, Inspiron, XPS, Vostro, Latitude, Optiplex, and Precision branded Dell computers work great in Windows 10. Once you've found the Dell device you want Windows 10 drivers for, select it and then choose Windows 10 from the Operating System menu. Enter your Dell PC Service Tag or Express Service Code, browse for your device manually, or choose to Download & Install SupportAssist for the automated process.

Dell provides Windows 10 drivers for their desktop and laptop computers via their Drivers & Downloads page.
