The driver update utility calls it a customized driver or something along those lines.

I do not know how outdated this driver is, but the laptop doesn't perform too well with games so I wanted to update it. I know my only option is to uninstall this driver and install a generic driver, but they say it may cause problems and such.

Could someone explain the ramifications and if I should just remain with this driver instead?
