installing nforce drivers

nohbody · Sep 17, 2004, 01:44 PM

Does anyone have any recomendations on "properly" installing these drivers. In the past i just uninstalled the old chipset drivers and reinstalled the new ones. I was wondering if anyone could point me to a thread, or give some tips.

I second that motion. This is my first nForce 2 board so I'm also curious.

you can uninstall and use driver cleaner then install

or just install over like i do...

also make sure you get a hold of the 5.03's or the later remix

Thanks for the input Cowboy.

As for the later 'remix' what are you referring to?

I install over the ones I'm running. I always seem to run in to problems when I try to uninstall.

Yep I just installed over the previous drivers and it worked out fine.
