Driver help

[thestone86]

I have finally connected to the internet with my computer i have been building. Now i need to know what drivers i have to download first. Should i update my motherboard first? If so do i need to update the bios or what and if not the motherboard first then what? should i update xp?

Any order it shouldn't matter the bios doesn't need updating straight away (also don't use the automatic update utilities they have a habit of cancelling halfway leaving you in bios limbo)

I generally start winupdate then try and find and install as many drivers as possible until winupdate asks to restart repeat until finished

It is always a good idea to update the chipset drivers first. Then video. Then you can move on from there.
