    Hello! I recently did a complete wipe of my laptop and I just reinstalled Windows 7 64bit back on it. I now need to download all of the appropriate drivers for my laptop. Unfortunately, I can't seem to find a package for my specific model anywhere. The best that I've found is the Asus website that gives me the choice of downloading 85 different drivers, many of which I'm assuming are redundant. It seems a bit odd that there'd be so many choices for a specific model, A53S, and I'm worried about downloading the wrong one. Is there a link for a package that contains all relevant drivers or a free and trustworthy program that will tell me what to download?

    You can run the Windows updates first; that will cover your most essential drivers (make sure to check the Hardware drivers section in the update tool). From there, you can use the Asus site, or update each driver yourself from the component manufacturer's site. Asus may or may not have the most up to date driver submitted to them. Just know that the most updated drivers are not always submitted to Microsoft, but it will at least get some of your devices working.

    And chances are some of those drivers are indeed redundant. ;)
