teecee Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 I always run the updates for Nvidia as a matter of course. I have not had a problem in years (touch wood) this applies to this latest update too. Teecee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
NoLonger Posted August 23, 2015 Share Posted August 23, 2015 No problems here. Simply installed it over the old one and it works like expected. (I never go through the uninstall, clean with some kind of driver cleaner and install sequence that some people find necessary. Why make it complicated if you can do it simple. ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

(I never go through the uninstall, clean with some kind of driver cleaner and install sequence that some people find necessary. Why make it complicated if you can do it simple. ) It's not very difficult to do a clean GPU drivers installation with the DDU tool. I wonder that in this case you don't do a clean install as you always mention doing things clean. Here's the link to get DDU and how to use it. http://forums.guru3d.com/showthread.php?t=379506 Spirit Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mjrhealth Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 You dont need any tools the option is in the driver install for a clean install. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

teecee Posted August 24, 2015 Share Posted August 24, 2015 My take on this? The Techs at Nvidia are way smarter than me, so I let their product do it's work, and that has worked for me for many years now. Teecee. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Letting the nVidia driver do what it is supposed to do without having to install extra software sounds pretty clean to me! And so far I never had any problems with nVidia drivers so... I'll stick with my clean method. Thanks for the advice, link and thinking along anyway: seriously much appreciated! Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyinion Posted August 27, 2015 Share Posted August 27, 2015 Just a note on the "using a cleaner" vs. just updating etc. The process has really changed over the years as drivers have evolved. There have always been some good writeups on the EVGA forums (my video card of choice for years) on the proper ways to update drivers. These writeups have evolved as the drivers have. First was always the uninstall it and then run a driver sweeper method. Then it was uninstall all components (physx, etc.) and finally the driver itself, reboot, install new driver, reboot. Now it's really just download, run installer, choose the components to install, clean install checkbox, reboot. The only reason to run a manual uninstall + Driver Sweeper now is if you have some sort of problem occur. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
