    Anyone use driver sweeper?


    Does anyone thoroughly use driver sweeper before installing new drivers, or do you just install new drivers over the old? The app can remove a number of key drivers, namely ATI, Nvidia, and Realtek among others. You can download here:

    Basically, uninstall the drivers from control panel, reboot into safe mode, run driver sweeper, reboot again into safe mode, and install the new drivers. Then a final reboot into 7. You can run Sweeper again, but I don't think that's necessary. I find everything is slightly smoother.

    I've never used it, but I did look into it. :)
