Due to random freezing and some unsolvable issue with Hyper-V, I decided to reformat Win10 with a clean, stock MS Win10 image, left it overnight to auto installed some essential drivers such as GPU, sound card, and some Intel chipset drivers.

Now basically the essential drivers are installed, minus the HP OEM apps like HP 3D Drive guard, HP support assistant, still thinking whether to install them or not. I kinda suspect these OEM software caused the Win10 system to freeze randomly

here comes the question, do you guys always get the drivers from device manager (download from MS), instead of going to laptop manufacturers website to download?

If you didn't find them useful before, I guess you didn't need them afterall.
