I too have a driver update awaiting, I just right click and "hide update" The saying "If it aint broke" comes to mind, if Links runs fine I'd say leave it alone! Also, a better place to dload drivers is 3dguru.com, futhermore, it is recommended to uninstall old drivers 1st then install new ones. I'm running a 1yr old driver that works fine No No

If everything is working fine, I'm not sure I would mess with it. I know some people like to try out the latest, but the latest isn't always the greatest in the case of video drivers, especially in the case of Links.

Personally, if it ain't broke, don't fix it.
