Swapping motherboard & need program to strip original drivers
I thought I had read about a program that strips old motherboard drivers following a swap but I cannot find any info about what the program is called.

Just delete them from device manager or install the new board and ignore them.

The easiest way to do it is just to start the computer up in safe mode and remove them from the add or remove programs menu. most uninstall programs will work under safe mode

The best thing to do is install windows fresh and save your files you need to a usb drive.
The registery almost never works correctly if you try another method.
