Nvidia Driver Install Question- Please help

[allmashkis]

I just got a new PC after 7 years. It is 920 with GTX 275 with Windowns 7 64bit. I noticed that the text is blurry in all of the flight sims. It looks like there is a fog over everything.

I like to update the GPU driver to see if this will fix the issue.

My question is this… Do I uninstall Nvidia drivers, PhysX and Stereoscopic 3D before installing the new driver or just uninstall the Nvidia driver and leave PhysX and 3D alone?

Thanks.

i don't think driver is the problem. You shouldn't need to flush drivers for a new build PC, reinstalling it will do. Check the resolution setting in games and see if it is the same as your monitor though.

To flush the driver manually, you will first need A program that cleans registry, ccleaner does that and it is free. Once you have the program you will need to go add/remove programs to remove the display driver from the nvidia drivers, you can also uninstall PhysX and 3d as they will be installed as you install the driver anyways. Reboot, remove all Nvidia directory manually then clean the registry, then reinstall.

Nice suggestion, this is likely the case.

I'm guessing the OP has an LCD monitor because CRTs don't show blurriness at non-native resolutions.

The thing I find interesting about Win7 is that you don't have to reboot after updating drivers. Nice.
