The document outlines the process of installing device drivers post-operating system installation, emphasizing the distinction between automatic and manual installation methods. It discusses the role of device drivers in facilitating interaction between the operating system and hardware, as well as the potential drawbacks of using generic drivers. Additionally, the document includes a reference to Driver Pack Solution, a tool for simplifying the driver installation process.

3. Installing device drivers
 Now that you successfully
installed the operating system,
you’ll need to configure the
devices such as Video Cards,
Network Interface Cards,
Sound Cards, etc. by installing
the device drivers of each. In
many cases, if Windows
recognizes the device, drivers
will be installed automatically. In
some cases, generic drivers are
installed so that the devices will
work properly.

4. Device Driver
 provides an interface that allows the operating system and other software to
interact with the device, without having to deal with the particular hardware
implementation of the device. The device drivers are installed into the
operating system on demand, extending the functionality of the operating
system
 When a specific device driver either not be found or not be installed, the
operating system may load a generic device driver. A generic device driver
may not be as well-suited to the device as a specific device driver:
The generic device driver may be missing features that the specific device
driver would provide.
The operation of a generic device driver may be inefficient, meaning that
the computer system’s performance would slow down.
