Thanks in advance!

Just did a clean install of Windows 10 V. 2004. As usual, Windows has downloaded all of my drivers for me. The chipset, GPU, Sound, etc... The only devices in Device Manager which show MS as being the provider are for my USB ports on my motherboard. Each listing in Device Manager is named after the company: Asmedia, Intel. So do I really need to install the manufacturer's USB drivers? It's running fine as it is and I'm getting good speeds.

Thanks!

Thanks! That's what I thought. The drivers Windows installs are dated this year. So they're pretty recent. And 99% are from the manufacturer.
