Ready to upgrade but driver concerns
I've finally plucked up the courage to upgrade from W7 to W10 but I have concerns about driver compatibility. The 'Get Windows 10' app says things are OK but I'm not convinced. For instance, these are current drivers that are out of date and since this list was compiled I've only been able to update Realtek card reader and HD audio:

Do you think any of these outdated drivers will cause problems? I haven't been able to find working download links for most of them.
Also, I have the Nvidia GeForce 9600M GT graphics card. The 177MB update Windows suggested for it screwed things up so I had to roll back. Does anyone know if it needs updating or if it will cause problems?
Any help really appreciated.
