Driver confusion

I just bought a new hard drive and reinstalled windows XP on it. I am working on my Dell Dimension E510, which is at least 4 years old.

I had the old driver CD still, so I used that after installing XP and the service pack, etc etc.

Everything is working fine, but I wanted to try and update my drivers, seeing as how I installed the original ones that shipped with the computer when I first purchased it.

I tried using Dell's website (entering my computers ID number), and it gave me a list of drivers, but they were all dated around 2006-2007.

My questions:

Would the Dell site actually have up to date drivers, or do I have to go to each individual piece of hardware's website to find the newest drivers?

Is there an easy way of going about updating drivers?

Thanks!
