    I just purchased a Dell GX260 Tower and was wondering if I should update all the drivers...Ive had one bsod so far and i ran chkdsk (from within windows) hasnt occured again...here is the list from Dell

    should i leave the Bios update alone?ive heard that its kind of a last resort flash.
    and what about the Dell Diagnostic utuility,is it worth downloading

    thanks in advance

    These are rather dated updates!! I'd call Dell and ask as to why they are showing up for your Tag# and recently purchased Hardware. They are all optional, but for one which is recommended!!
    I'd go for the Diagnostic utility. Agree with you on the BIOS flash..
    Cheers...

    Thanks sikvik,will probably leave well enough alone,I am kind of interested in trying the Dell Diagnostic utility. and will probably grab the Recommended Intel driver.....Thanks for the advice.
