Drivers

Hi all. Thanks for your help i've just finished a new build and its been running fine for 2 days.
I'm wondering should I update all the drivers and stuff for windows vista or should i just leave it how it is with the drivers vista put on. Also should I update the bios or anything. Thanks

What's the model of your motherboard? You should install the chipset drivers if the manufacturer has them available for vista. You should also install the latest drivers released by your video card manufacturer.

You shouldn't update the BIOS unless there's a particular reason for you to need to.
