exclamation Running Cab Cleaner Correctly?

Just a quick question.

Installed the new nVidia BETA GeForce Release 185 drivers, and before installing them, I made sure to use DH Driver Cleaner. Of course I followed all the instructions properly.

However, one thing I was unsure about was, when running the Cab Cleaner, two .cab files came up;

The first being Driver.cab and the other SP3.cab

Since I was unsure of what SP3.cab was, I didn't have Cab Cleaner clean it and only ran it on Driver.cab

I'm wondering If I was supposed to clean both. I didn't because I figured SP3.cab was a file related to Service Pack 3 and didn't want to cause any problems.

If someone could give me an answer, I'd like to know. If I was supposed to clean both, I will just repeat the Driver Cleaner process and reinstall the drivers as there does seem to be a bit of system instability now.

Thanx

I don't know if SP3 includes any graphics drivers, but in general I would only use the Cab Cleaner part when there's any actual problem showing that might make that necessary.

sp3.cab is the cab file what you have if you have XP's SP3 installed and it contains some drivers as mkk said.

Hi,

the sp3 cab is best to clean so that you are sure there are no ati or nvidia drivers in there.
