So my 7600GT is done and my new HD 3870 is coming today. I am just wondering, how do I deal with the drivers? Should I uninstal my nvidia drivers then install the HD 3870 then boot up with no drivers then install them first thing? If not, how should I do it?

So boot up with no drivers? Or uninstall the Nvidia drivers and intstall the ATI drivers WITH 7600GT still in the computer. Really lay it out slowly for me, act like I am stupid. >_>

Uninstall Nvidia with 7600 in and then put in HD 3800 then install ATi drivers. I did this on a clients computer and it works.
