See Microsoft's support article, Update drivers in Windows 10 for details.If there are no updates available or if the updates don't solve your problems, continue to the next section.

Using your computer manufacturer's system update tool

Some computer manufacturers include a system update tool that updates drivers and bypasses the Windows ones. You may be required to use this tool to update graphics drivers.

Just search for this tool from the Start menu. Some possible search terms are the name of your computer manufacturer (such as Dell or HP) or generic terms like 'update', 'maintenance' or 'driver'. Open the tool and apply all available updates.

If there is no update tool, no updates available, or if the updates don't solve your problems, continue to the next section.

Use your distribution's standard update process

If your distribution's standard update process doesn't give you the latest drivers, you may need to look for other package repositories for your distribution. For example, to upgrade closed-source drivers on Ubuntu, you may need to go to System Settings > Hardware > Additional Drivers.

Using the latest generic graphics drivers

You can also install a generic graphics driver from your graphics card manufacturer's website. These are usually kept up-to-date and are designed to work on a variety of systems:

If you don't know which graphics card you have, look in the graphics section of Firefox's about:supportTroubleshooting Information page.

How To Update Mac Graphic Driver

When possible, for Microsoft Windows users, we try to have drivers available for download through Windows Update for many of our products. For those products, simply plugging in your device should cause your PC to download and install drivers automatically if your PC has Internet access.

For Mac OS X users with supported products, if a driver is not provided by the operating system, they must be downloaded and installed. For Linux/Unix users, support varies widely by product, kernel version, and OS distribution.
