Is it necessary to upgrade to a new GPU driver?

i planned to replace the driver with the new RELEASE 180.48 for Windows XP

Is it ok or will it cause any damage to my Vcard?

Ok ra bro oi, basta supported ang imong video card anang bag-o nga driver. Mas maayo hinuon na updated kay maka take advantage ka sa mga game fixes ug optimizations sa new driver.

if all goes black, roll back drivers - you should know how to do this before installing the new drivers.

my monitor went all black after installing the latest nvidia driver.
