Is there a way to completely obliterate ALL video drivers from Windows? My computer was running fine, but now it hard locks anytime that I try to play anything that uses 3d. I first started noticing this with NHL2001, but figured it was just the game. Then, the N4 demo would lock if I tried to use OpenGL, but worked once when I switched to D3D (BTW I am on a Herc Geforce2 MX) Then I dled the F1C2000 demo and it locks everytime I hit the grid and try to race. The only thing I can think of is that I switched to the new Her drivers a week or so ago. But when I go back to the Detonators that WERE working before, I get the same result. So, before I blame my card or something, I wanted to try to do a fresh install of ONE set of drivers to see if that would help...... Any suggestions?????
