Hello,

I was wondering if it is necessary to not only uninstall Nvidia Graphics driver, but the Nvidia HD Audio driver and Nvidia Physx from the program menu when setting up to install a new Nvidia GPU and then updating the drivers for the new hardware. I really appreciate any help given.

Have a good day,

Normally, you just need to run the Nvidia driver installation pkg. and let it handle the process. It will uninstall the apps you choose to update automatically. No real need to uninstall stuff beforehand anymore.

But old purists like me still run something like DDU from safe mode before installing the latest driver pkg from either Nvidia or AMD. http://www.majorgeeks.com/files/details/display_driver_uninstaller.html
