btw reason i was looking at updating them is because my comp may not be that good but it plays alot of high end games ect pretty well but a few newer ones and some older just have really bad lag/fps so was just poking around trying to fix it

There aren't any.
On average Manufacturers might update laptop drivers, once, or never.

If that is not a gaming laptop, you won't be able to play real games, on anything but the lowest settings.
Even most gaming laptops are very weak compared to a gaming desktop.

Then you HAVE the latest driver. You don't need to look any further.
