    If your like me i try and keep them as new as possible, but it means searching around a few sites.

    I found this site, it automaticaly check to see if your drives are up to date.

    it`s not a free service, but it tells you if a new version is avaliable so you can upgrade it yourself for free. :)

    I'd stay away from "services" like this, especially with laptops. Most drivers for laptops aren't updated regularly, if at all. And why update if you don't have a problem? If you do have a problem, or actually care and know what you're doing, you can manually update the drivers.

    That being said, the Windows driver model sucks. :p
