A good start would be to post the brand name and model type.
Then someone might be able to steer you in the right direction.

1. Inside the PC / start / settings / control panel / system
/ device manager
and entries for each item will tell you wnat drivers are
already installed (if any.)

2. The free downloadable diagnostic from www.belarc.com
may have useful information too.
