Default Cleaning Nvidia drivers to go to ATI on a Nforce2 A7N8X Dlx mobo

Hi, all:

I'll be switching to ATI after many years. I've been reading about the
fun that folks are having getting their Nvidia drivers removed and the
ATI ones properly installed, and since one of the procedures that has
to be done is registry searching for Nv*, and removing those entries,
I was wondering how I can differentiate between those files and
registry enries that have to do with the video driver set and those
that are there for the chipset/NIC/onboard sound...

Or am I doomed to reformat?

A7N8X Deluxe with XP Pro SP1

Thanks for any ideas!

Bob M.

When I went from a 4200 to a 9700 Pro I just uninstalled the NVidia
drivers, replaced the card and installed the ATI drivers, no problems
whatsoever.



Thanks - this was on a Nforce2 motherboard? Just making sure, no
offence intended.
