Hello folk im going to do a clean install on my hp computer for windows 7 and wanted to know if I needed any drivers? Because the only driver I have is for gpu. So I was wondering will the clean install delete drivers and force me to download motherbord drivers and all the other equipment that came with the computer? And if I do, were would I get thes drivers from ?

After you do a clean install usually windows would update the drivers for you. For the GPU, you should do it. There may be one or two 'special drivers' that may not be updated at all for example USB 3.0 or card reader drivers. Best option is to find out your hp model then visit the hp website and look for all the drivers for that hp computer and check which ones you don't find similar on your computer management section.
