Apple Event: May 7th at 7 am PT
I am now running windows 8.1 under boot camp.
I received an alert that I need to update my drivers.
How can I do that?
Thanks.

if it was windows update then windows update would have the drivers
if it was the Jensens familys youngests one called Frank then I would take it up with him
Not quite sure I understood you.
It was windows alert (the flag that is displayed at the lower write corner). It was forwarding me to apple bootcamp support page.
The message says
Download and install the driver for Boot Camp Support Software
Boot Camp Support Software is missing a driver.
A driver for Boot Camp Support Software, and instructions for installing it, are available on the manufacturer's website.
Tap or click to download the driver from the Apple Inc website

Any ideas?

each site list the models the drivers work with
unzip it and run the nvidia or amd or intel video card driver depending on what your computer usees
I'm getting the exact same message. I just installed Win 8.1 Enterprise WITH the latest Boot Camp Software. Problem I have is...the message doesn't tell you WHICH driver you need, and the link just takes you to Apple's Downloads page.
What driver am I supposed to download and install? Windows' Device Manager doesn't show any issues, nor do the Windows logs.
Thanks.
Here are the two error messages that are prompting me to dowload drivers. I tried looking up the hardware ID's in Google, but, no joy...
Any idea of what is needed to be installed?
Thanks.
