I just got a 64MB Hercules 3D Prophet II Geforce2 GTS Pro. Okay, I know that I need to uninstall these Voodoo3 drivers, but how exactly do I do that? Sorry, I've never had to uninstall a driver before. Also, do I need to install the drivers on the cd or can I just go straight for the Detonators? Are the drivers listed on the Hercules website Detonators? They just say "drivers", so I don't know. One more thing, which version of the Detonators do you guys like best and where can I get them? I only see 6.34 and 6.35 on the Hercules website. If there is something that I'm forgetting please let me know. Sorry, about all the questions.

Thanks for the help,
Shooters

Right click on mycomputer, then properties, then click on devicce manager tab, and look at video adapters.
See Voodoo 3 in there? click on it and then delete it (i think there is a button that says remove) Now just shutdown, and put the new card in and take the voodoo out. U can use the driver cd at first to get it up steady then get the detenators. I had a problem that the detenators wereent working on my leadtek geforce2 once, so just get up runing then try detenators
u can get detenators at nvidia.com

Shooters,You have to decide if you want to use Hercules drivers or Nvidia reference drivers,if you install Hercules drivers then decide to try Nvidia drivers you will have to uninstall the Hercules drivers first,Nvidia release drivers quicker then anyone else so if you want the latest stick with Nvidia drivers.
