Whoops!

So I've had this lovely Sony Vaio Laptop since I guess, January of 2010? Regardless, it recently started to majorly slow down and be noticeablely more difficult. Well it turns out I think my computer is magic or something and I haven't updated a thing beyond your standard windows auto updates (the Sony/Vaio auto updates somehow got turned off) because I apparently do not possess a brain. I've now spent some time looking at what i need to do however, if I was this dumb in the first place, I'm sure I'm missing something.
So we're clear here, I just downloaded a 'Critical' Wifi Security Update... from 2011. Hopefully someone can give me some pointers? Such as, can I update all the drivers at once? Are there some updates I should do by themselves? I am running Windows 7 x64 and its a sony vaio VPCCW13FD


And, yes, I am aware that I likely have amused some people with my general fail. Hopefully you guys can help me out?
Thanks
E

Running Windows Update should get you straight, i recommend looking your model up and seeing if new drivers have been released for the mobo or GPU.

Personally I would reformat if it hasn't been since you got it, then start updating drivers. Windows rot is real.
