Moving from Nvidia to ATI

[MrRoper]

Hi guys,

Just ordered a 5850 so I can replace my softth setup for iRacing.

Just wondering on the best process of swapping the cards, i.e. removing old drivers etc, as I have always rebuilt other times. Would like to not have to this time if possible

thanks in advance

current setup is

GTX 280 and 8800 gtx driving softth

evga 780i MB witha q6600

I presume the nforce drivers stay on?

So the concensous is

Uninstall using add/remove
shut down
Remove both cards
put new card in
reboot
install ati drivers

sounds good?
