According to them almost all updates to device drivers are necessitated by changes to the hardware… e.g. new models, different components etc. I've solved other peoples problems by getting them to revert to the drivers that came with the device.

Very interesting info. I don't like updating graphics drivers, but now and then I have an issue with dwm.exe RAM usage leak that seems to go away after updating them.
