lets say you have a copy of win7 already at home and you buy a pc without it
when you install it will it find all the drivers on it own or do i have to install them on my own?

does each part of the pc(the ones that need one) come with a cd or not?

The guys who have recieved their PC will confirm this, but I'm pretty sure all necessary hardware drivers will come with the PC.
If you are referring to Win7 detecting it's own drivers on install I'm not so sure, but automatic update will most likely spam once it's installed, and that will ensure that you get uptodate.

Windows 7 will install 'basic' drivers for your devices which it has drivers for in it's cache. However for things like graphics drivers, you will need to download the latest from Nvidia or ATi's website. You will recieve a disc with all your motherboard's drivers (such as networking drivers) in your welcome pack.

All what you need to do with Windows 7, is Windows Update (and choose Optional updates, there you will find some hardware drivers). After that download and install latest graphic driver from website.
