Harry, if you don't mind me saying I wouldn't worry about testing your drivers. You have two or three key drivers - video, audio and nic (if you use a nic). If everything is working properly you should not update drivers. The only time to update a driver is if you need certain functionality that is offered in a new release (including compatibility with an OS update) or if you are having a problem with your current driver. IMO, updating drivers needlessly causes more problems than anything except malware. There is really no such thing as an "out of date" driver.

Well you can download & install the update for directx if you like, that's not a driver. Here's where to get it: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/details.aspx?familyid=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3&displaylang=en

Oh - and a NIC is a Network Interface Card (or Ethernet card).
