If it's hardware, it *usually* needs a driver, but often the drivers will install themselves transparently to the user with the Windows installation. If plug and play asks you for a driver, it needs one. If a device is flagged in device manager, it usually needs a new driver.

Generally the only items that *need* user intervention to install a driver are sound cards, video cards, and modems. Read the instruction sheets that come with each and every device - they will tell you if a driver is needed and if so, where to find it and how to install it.
