Brilliant for cleaning out old drivers

HOWEVER it will screw your system up if you uninstall the " chipset " drivers on most systems.

Also make sure you DON'T install the toolbars and crappy spyware by clicking the boxes that you don't want to install. Hell even Daemon tools and most apps have some rubbish toolbar they want you to install and you have to click no.

As someone who uses beta drivers and modified drivers, also PAX drivers driversweeper is sometimes needed ;)
 
On xp I used it a lot, on vista hardly ever and w7 only once. Well, twice, the second to confirm it didn't only remove amd driver but also the one microsoft pushed out for windows leaving my pc with no drivers that would work at 1680. Guru3D stopped hosting this around the same time said annoying issue appeared because of the other junk it tries to install, but in fairness, even directx tries to install a tool bar these days.

Very few people on windows 7 will actually need this now.
