Windows Drivers
Friends,

I have installed Windows on my MacBook Pro and have installed the drivers that came installed on the OSX DVD.

Going-forward, can I update the drivers with ones available from the manufacturers websites or 'software update' functionality within the program to keep drivers updated?

Any suggestions on how I can keep all device drivers updated via Apple?

Cheers.

No, you don't have to use Apple's drivers. The manufacturer's drivers are sometimes better. e.g: The Apple GMA 950 drivers restrict the 950 to using 64mb, while the Intel one unlocks this, without risk of BIOS corruption, to 224mb.
Apple hasn't updated Boot Camp 2.0 yet, so I don't know. Maybe through Software Update for Windows?
