Acrually what he did is completely correct, but he forgot one extra step when uninstalling. I dont think he used DriverCleaner Pro. But I dont recommend doing this step now until youfigure out what the problem is.

I dont think I ever had to do this when UPDATING a driver.

Hey guys, I recently tried to run a game, and it said I had to update my drivers. So I deleted my old ones, downloaded the new ones fron Nvidia (My card is a 8600 gt) For Windows Vista 32bit. My operating system is 32bit. So I tried installing it and it sais my Computer Is NOT 32 bit, (YES im sure it is 32bit:P) So now, I am driver-less and I cant run anything. HELPPoop03

Did you just purchase this computer or have you been running it for a while?

Um, if you don't uninstall the old driver the new one won't have an effect...

Maybe it was a bad link that they fixed now, try restarting computer and getting the latest beta or official driver from NVIDIA website

Next to Creative Labs, NVidia's drivers are the worst.

Oh snap! Did he just put NVidia drivers in the same league as Creative Labs?
