Can anyone give me any advice on completely removing 8500 drivers from win2k?? I've got muddy textures in open gl games and i think its cos part of the old drivers got left behind.
does anyone know what registry settings need removing and what in winnt folder need getting rid of.
I always use add/remove programs but theres still stuff left behind.
Thanks
Dave

Hi,

Try and have a read HERE (http://www.rage3d.com/board/showthread.php?threadid=33601141) , Look for the first post by "Tisual" should work for Win2K too i think.

thanks for that guide, there was a fair bit in registry and even somet nvidia which nvcleaner didnt get rid of so i got rid of all that and a few files in system 32, it made the ati demos work at last but i still have this texture problem. its mostly aparent in 2 games i like, q3 on some brown wall textures and serious sam in the blue sky thats about it, doesnt seem tos how in other places. When im home ill try get a piccy up of serious sam sky cos it shows it best
cheers
