Generally speaking computer drivers are small software codes that allow all of a PCs parts to communicate with each other and the operating system. If one wanted to dive a little further into various types of drivers one would find that there are 3 types of drivers.
The first type of driver is called a beta driver. In computer software a beta version is synonymous for a second stage in software testing. At this stage the software is released to the public for free for testing, but is not ready for “prime time.” A beta driver is similar. The driver is available for testing by those who wish to test it, but not recommended for casual computer users who do not wish to troubleshoot manufacturer’s drivers.
The second type of driver is an external device driver. An external device is any device that you plug into your computer via a USB or Ethernet port. Some examples of these devices are printers, modems or cameras. A PC requires drivers to be able to communicate with these devices and because these are items purchased separately from the PC the PC does not have these drivers pre-installed. A PC user needs to install the corresponding peripheral driver to use the device. Therefore these are called external device drivers.
The last type of driver is a generic driver. These are drivers installed on a PC when the manufacturer builds the computer. These are often the quickest drivers to be out of date because of the time lag between the build and sale to the end user. They are also the most difficult to upgrade because the average PC user is not aware of all the manufacturers who developed the components of their PC.
