Hi guys,
When it comes to installing your chipset driver, after it installs, should I restart the computer immediately for it to take affect and then install the rest of the drivers? Or restart later after I have installed the rest of the drivers.
What do suggest?
Thanks

Some drivers will require you to reboot before they work correctly, sometimes you can get away with not rebooting for a number of driver installs at one time.

They'll usually state whether or not a reboot is necessary in most cases you don't need to worry unless you're unsure of the drivers you install in which case a reboot after each install may alert you to a wrong driver but it's time consuming.

RECdevicehelper the reason why you have to reboot sometimes is because the file may be in use by another program or system and it will need to be rebooted so it can install the drive or software.
