This will allow you to assess your Driver needs without any commitment. Alternatively, you can use the device manager to check if there are problems with any of your hardware devices. In many cases the answer to this is yes, however in some cases the manufacturers no longer make the Drivers available so you need to use a Driver Update Tool to install the missing Drivers.
The purpose of such as tool is to save you time and effort by automatically downloading and updating the Drivers for you.
A Driver Update Program will instantly resolve your drivers problems by scanning your PC for outdated, missing or corrupt drivers, which it then automatically updates to the most compatible version. However, those five flaws appear to involve a different update process than the one revealed today. Eclypsium specializes in finding firmware and hardware flaws and revealed several such flaws in Dell, HP and Lenovo machines in early First, not all Dell machines are vulnerable to these flaws.
Dell counts models that are affected, and they're listed in this Dell security advisory. Second, these steps apply only to machines on which you have full administrative rights. If you're dealing with a machine owned or controlled by your workplace, then let your IT staffers handle this.
If someone else in your household has admin rights on your machine, let them handle this. Third, you may need to turn off BitLocker drive encryption if you're running Windows 10 Pro or Enterprise. Windows 10 Home machines, found on most consumer models, will not have BitLocker installed. Search for "BitLocker" in the search bar in the bottom left corner of the Windows interface, then select "Manage BitLocker" in the search-results page. If the resulting window states that BitLocker is off, then you're all set.
If it's on, then suspend BitLocker protection during the driver-update process. Anyhow, if your Dell machine is on the list of vulnerable machines, or you're not sure which model you have, then follow these steps. Let the page scan your machine to determine its model, provided Dell SupportAssist has already been installed. Alternately, you can plug in the model number or service tag manually and perform a search.
Once the Dell model has been identified, you'll be taken to a model-specific support page that can automatically figure out which drivers you need. You can also manually search for the proper updates by clicking in the Category drop-down menu for BIOS updates. Download the latest BIOS update, then run it. Follow the on-screen instructions to finish the process. You'll probably need to fully reboot the machine for the update to take effect.
On most machines, there's only one OS installed and the startup process will continue automatically.
