    Best way to remove Nvidia drivers?

    I'm going with my first ATI card since the Rage II/c days. I've heard it's best to remove all traces of the Nvidia drivers.

    Does detonator destroyer work with 2k? if not, which program is best, or should I just go into the registry and delete all entrys related to nvidia? or can I just remove them in add/remove programs?

    I am in the same situation.

    In fact, my Radeon 9700 Pro arrived today, and I am going to format.

    The only way I know of to completely remove the drivers is to format.

    Det Destroyer only works in Win98 and WinME. I have heard good things about NVCleaner, but have yet to find a working download for it.

    The best way is:

    DELTREE *.* /Y

    Or DEBUG, DEBUG can fix anything!!
