A device driver or software driver is a computer program allowing higher-level computer programs to interact with a hardware device. For the Precision 3630 Tower, all the driver installations for each device are similar, except that some systems may have more devices than others.

After a clean installation of the Microsoft Windows 10 operating system, you must install the following drivers/software packages.

Precision 3630 Tower Driver installation guide

 

Microsoft Windows 10

 
SLN314148_en_US__2icon Note: Use this page as a reference for what the list of drivers should look like in Device Manager after installation. Drivers can be downloaded from the Dell Support Site.
 
SLN314148_en_US__2icon Note: See article Drivers and Downloads FAQ for help with identifying Video controllers and other hardware components.
 
SLN314148_en_US__2icon Note: The driver installation processes for Windows 7, Windows 8.1, and Windows 10 are mostly identical. (Most of the device drivers will be pre-installed during the Windows 8.1 and 10 installation process.) For the best results, we recommend installing the Intel Chipset driver utility first.
  

After a fresh copy of Windows is installed, always install the Intel chipset driver utility first. After that, you can install the rest of the devices' drivers in any sequence. However, we would recommend you follow the convention below.
