How can I kill my nVidia drivers completely?

Post by McNum »

Long story short: I'm getting a new graphics card. I use an nVidia card right now, but the new one will be an ATi. I know the nVidia drivers always leave some residue when uninstalled, so I want to make absolutely sure that I get every last scrap of drivers removed to avoid any driver conflicts. How do I do that?

Also, how good are the ATi drivers?

ATi drivers today are very good, even though the CCC interface is SLOWWWWW.

An ATI Radeon 9600XT.

It's not the newest model, but since my motherboard doesn't support PCIx I got one of the more powerful AGP cards I could get. It cost me $160-$175 or so. And the games are really beautiful with this puppy. I see effects I didn't know I was missing. :-)
