Drivers Updates

Question

Hey all, there are some driver updates listed for my  Dimension E520 and i am not sure if i should download them and i'm not even sure how. if i click on the update driver button in the device manager  will it update from the dell website? also is there only supposed to be one driver for the network adapters?. the only driver on the dell website that shows urgent is for the chipset  driver. i reformatted and reinstalled xp a few weeks ago and i assume i downloaded all the drivers or something would be not working. i downloaded the drivers off the drivers cd i recieved from dell when i purchased the computer 3 years ago. so there are driver updates but i dont know if i should update the drivers or just the urgent or none. some advice would be gratly appreciated

rickboo, My rule of drivers is to only update when I am correcting a specific issue. Are you having any issues?

No i am not having any issues that i know of. i just thought that maybe because the driver update was marked urgent that maybe i should download it. i guess i'll leave well enough alone. Maybe i will burn the drivers and the latest updates to a cd so next time i have to reformat i'll just install the latest drivers. or should i just stick with the drivers cd that came with the computer? thanks. also is there only the one driver for the network adapters?
