Usually new computers have all the drivers pre-installed, and have a recovery process which will re-install all the OS with drivers again.

There are programs which will search the system and look for newer drivers on the net, some of these programs also backup the currently installed drivers to a folder ( I have found this very useful for old PC's which are working but need an OS re-install and you don't have the drivers).

Search google for "driver backup" etc.

Solution 1

Lookup your product on the manufacturer's website and you should be able to get a list of the lastest drivers available for your product.
