Hello! You can still use the guide below, however things are a bit easier now days.


1. Uninstall old drivers through the Control Panel (programs/features). Restart.

2. Download, install and run DDU (Display Driver Uninstaller) then restart. Best to do it in Safe Mode (the program will give you that option).

3. Done. Install new drivers.

AMD Drivers Here

Nvidia Drivers Here


Download DDU Here (Scroll down to bottom and be sure to download the latest version)


This works with XP, Vista and Windows 7, 8, 8.1, 10. with both Nvidia and AMD. Make sure that your motherboard/chipset drivers are updated. If you just added a 2nd card to your system you may need to update your motherboard/chipset drivers again. If you are using CrossFire, have both cards installed with both crossfire bridges installed from the start. This guide is for those of you having driver issues either due to a bad install, swapping in different video cards or what have you. If you have any kind of input, recommendations or suggestions please leave a post in the thread.
:toast:


Section A Control Panel​
1. Uninstall any video card overclocking programs that are tied to your drivers. (Rivatuner, ATi Tool, etc.)

2. Uninstall video drivers. Generally this is done through the control panel (add/remove programs for XP, Programs and Features for Vista and Windows 7) in Windows. For AMD it's called "AMD Catalyst Install Manager". For Nvidia it's usually labeled as "Nvidia Display Drivers" you want to uninstall. Restart. When restarted don't allow windows to install any drivers for your cards yet, just cancel out. For AMD, remove the latest CAP from the Control Panel as well... It will most likely ask you to restart again, do so. Re-check in add/remove programs - Programs and Features for any remaining AMD/Nvidia display associated drivers.


Section B Registry​
See Fig. X
1. Click Start->Run. Type: regedit

2. In the registry editor Click File->Export. Save to your desktop (Now you have a backup of your registry.)

3. Expand the folder "HKEY_CURRENT_USER" (by clicking the "+" sign), then expand the folder "Software".

4. Find and delete any files/folders pertaining to your old video drivers in the Windows folder and Program Files folder(s) BE CAREFUL NOT TO DELETE ANY CHIPSET FILES OR FOLDERS.

5. Follow steps 4 and 5 for the folder "HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE. Click File->Exit and you are done.


Section C Windows​
See Fig. Z
1. Delete the ATi/Nvidia folder on your system drive in the "Program Files" folder or wherever you saved it.

2. Go to the drive that Windows is stored on and double-click on the Windows folder.

3. Delete everything possible in the Temp and Prefetch folders.

4. In Vista/7: Start-->Search-->For Files and Folders. Type ATI in the search box, go to advanced and be sure to tick the box to search unindexed drives (if indexing is off). Two ATi folders should pop up under C:\Users\"yourname"\appdata. Delete both.

Or, you can find the folders manually. These files can be located, but first you need to make sure that you have "Show Hidden Files/Folders" selected under "Folder Options" in the Control Panel. Once done, go to: My Documents-

>AppData->Local and delete the ATi folder. You may find another folder to delete in: My Documents->AppData->Roaming.

5. Use a driver uninstaller of your choice. Driver Fusion, DDU, ATiMan, etc. This step really isn't necessary unless you experience issues with the reinstall.

6. Empty the Recycle Bin. Restart.


Install New Drivers​
*If you are running an AMD chipset/CPU be sure to reinstall your SB (chipset) drivers as well.

-Have fun! :)

***Always make sure that DirectX is up to date here: http://www.microsoft.com/downloads/...FamilyID=2da43d38-db71-4c1b-bc6a-9b6652cd92a3

Nice thread, Eric. I'm wondering though, what kind of damage have you heard happening when using driver cleaner? I've used it for about 5 years without a problem.

Most of the time mess ups with DC happen with user error. Though I've seen a driver cleaner or two take out a couple necessary Windows files before, resulting in random errors here and there. I just prefer knowing what's being deleted on my machine and not have a third-party program do it for me. :)

Thank you for taking the time to do this! This is a thread we'll all be linking....

I don't know how many people realize HOW imperitive it is to thoroughly clean the video drivers before instlling new ones.

One of the biggest clues that there are reminants of old drivers is if upon reinstall, it restores the screen res you had on a previous install and not the default 800x600. If you've experienced this, you haven't cleaned everything.

Another thing to note is how these latest Cats don't require C++ anymore, so if you have the latest Cats and something seems off, look in the "Add/Remove" and look and see if you have multiple C++ installs. Uninstall them and reinstall a current version IF you need it for another program.

Again, congrats on a wonderful and useful write-up!

I can believe that. Though for some this isn't the case.

you can never be too thorough with uninstalling drivers ;)
I don't think I ever got to thank you for that PM a while back on this e, so there you go :)
I actually have come to like using Driver Cleaner Pro as I do believe it automates what you described plus more, not to mention being quite simple to use

Especially if, for whatever reason, there was a problem with the drivers and they aren't working correctly.

Prefetch is an element of XP that is used to help "speed up" the opening of regularly used programs/files. You can delete eveything from it with no ill effects.

Temp folder is just that...temporary. Delete with impunity.

In prefetch delete everything except the Readyboost folder at the top. For the temp folder I delete everything except my anti-virus folder.:)

Hmm.... No Nvidia card to try out anymore, but I don't think so. The update is for deleting profiles and settings in CCC which automatically get deleted for Nvidia.:)
