New driver or updated driver

New driver or updated driver - 10/13/21 05:04 PM

I was interested in playing the game The Medium and decided I should check to see if my computer will run this game. So I went to the site Can I run it and checked my computer. It says my drivers have not been updated for some time and I only have the least requirements to play this game. How do I go about updating my drivers? Can I do this for free or do I need to take my computer into a computer shop to have this done? Thank you for your help I don't fully understand the method to do this. I bought a new (gaming) computer about 2 - 3 years ago so I am a bit confused about needing an update.

I wish it had said which components needed driver updates! What brand and model is your computer and I'll see if the manufacturer has driver updates for it?

Hi linda333, DON'T update your Drivers via that way, Supply the information that Draclvr asked you for and let her get the help you need, much safer that way, I trust Draclvr more than I trust almost anyone else.

NOPE! Never download from any place but the manufacturer. Thank you, Starcom!

Linda has contacted me via email and I sent her the links to the proper places to get drivers for her computer.

We're still working on it! Linda did get updated drivers for her Nvidia GTX 1060. Can I Run It is still not happy, but the graphics requirements for this game include the GTX 1060 in the minimum requirements, so I don't think she'll have any issues playing it. At the worst, she may have to reduce some graphics options.

Great work Draclvr, I had no doubt you would fix it. And Linda, I hope you enjoy the game, let us know how it goes.

You're too kind, Starcom! Hopefully we have it all figured out for Linda.
