Dell Latitude 7480 Windows 10 Driver Installation Guide
Overview
A device driver or software driver is a computer program allowing higher-level computer programs to interact with a hardware device.
For Latitude 7480 systems, all the drivers installation for their devices is similar except that some system may have more devices than the other.
Note: Use this page as a reference on how Device Manager should look like before and after the drivers have been installed. Drivers can be downloaded from the www.dell.com/support/drivers.
After a fresh copy of Windows is installed, always install the Intel Chipset Driver Utility first. After that, you can install the rest of the device drivers in any sequence. You can view the screenshots of before and after the driver installation below the table.
Note: The drivers installation process for Windows 7, Windows 8.1 and Windows 10 are almost identical. (Most of the device drivers will be preinstalled during the Windows 8.1 and 10 installation process.) However, the following Dell-branded drivers and software must be installed for proper operation if the operating system has been removed and reinstalled.
Before attempting to install Windows 7 or 8, check your processor type. Systems with seventh Generation Intel Core i7 Processors are not eligible for Windows 7/8/8.1 downgrades.
