No, your video card will not have auto update, the ones on Windows update are generally out of date. What video card do you have?

Video card updates will likely be found at your card's manufacturer site.

i.e. XFX, EVGA, sites, etc.

You will need to manually update video drivers. Go here and type in your information.

It will save the file. Run the file and it will install the newest driver released.
