Going from a 8800gts to 260gtx

Going to uninstall drivers - restart - then shutdown when it prompts to reinstall drivers again.

Then swap gfx and restart - install new drivers?

I hope there wont be any issues.

I've got a IP35 Pro board here

In normal Windows, uninstall through add/remove (or whatever program you might use to do so).

-Reboot into safe mode.
-Run Driver Cleaner for "Nvidia" selection in the drop down box, ONLY "Nvidia"
-Shutdown, card swap.
-Boot into safe mode.
-Install new drivers.
-Reboot into normal Windows.

If you cannot be bothered to use Driver Cleaner, then follow the other steps, just remove that part.
