If you have an older computer running Windows 10 make sure to upgrade the video card drivers. Older cards can cause shut down, and sleep problems. Even with the updated drivers the Sleep option may no longer be avaiable because the video card/drivers are just too old. A new video card then would be needed.
BS..
Updating drivers for the sake of having the latest drivers can cause a heck of a lot MORE problems..
One should really be very careful with installing the newest drivers since the newest often will break something in the process..
Many cases of a innocent driver update which does not support a mode you were using or worse yet corrupting your OS to the point of no return..
Drivers as long as they are working properly DO NOT "GO OUT OF DATE"..
Update at your own risk.
BS to you too.
Updating video drivers.I agree with your overall statement about drivers, but graphics card drivers are different, and in many cases improve performance.
One of the biggest problems with not being able to update to Windows 10 on an older PC is the video card drivers. Windows 10 will tell you that the video card is not compatible with Win 10, Updating the video drivers will solve this problem on a lot of PC's.
All one has to do is go to the manufactures website and check for an updated video driver. Manufactures know this is a problem and are updating many of the cards drivers.
I have had to do this with 3 PC's to allow Windows 10 to install.
