Re: Using Windows Fast Boot

You don't normally get firmware updates for cards, they either support features or they don't, the card you have is very basic

I think any firmware updates are normally invisible and applied as part of the new driver install.

New driver installs do not update firmwares, most drivers for ATI and Nvidia cards are for a ranges of different cards where as firmware is for a specific piece of hardware, you will very rarely find firmware updates for any graphics cards although those with Linux systems are able to hack some firmwares to upgrade them

Re: Using Windows Fast Boot

Just get an SSD drive and it will boot fast enough to not need fastboot
