Follow the prompts to install any newer drivers found.
If your working PC is not connected to the Internet, you'll need to download a driver using
another PC and then transfer the downloaded file(s) to the PC that needs them using a USB flash
drive.
Using a computer with Internet access, find and connect to the manufacturer's Web site.
Using the model number of the device, locate and download the correct driver for the operating
system on the PC where the device is installed.
Save the driver toa USB thumb drive, remove the thumb drive from that system, and insert it into
your working PC.
Most driver updates that you download nowadays come with their own setup program, and are
downloaded as an executable file. If that's the case, then you just run the executable to install the
driver update, you dont have to go through Device Manager.
In the odd case where what you've downloaded is bare driver files, and not an executable, here's
how to
install the update: a. Open Device Manager. b. Double-click the device that matches the
expansion card you have installed. C. Click the Driver tab, and then click Update Driver. d.
When prompted to connect to the Internet, choose Browse my computer for driver software
(Windows 8.1), and follow the directions to locate and load the new device driver.
