Very important Driver Cleaner question

[supastar1568]

I am in the process of installing a new ati card that will be replacing my 7800gt. I uninstalled the nvidia graphics driver from control panel--->add/remove programs. I then booted into safe and used Driver Cleaner PE and selected the nVidia option to get a thorough cleaning.

Does this nVidia option clean out my nVidia Nforce4 drivers as well? I noticed that there is also an option in Driver Cleaner that says "nForce Chipset". I do not want to unistall my chipset drivers.

So does this nVidia option clean the display driver only? and leaves the nForce Chipset option for the nVidia Chipset drivers?

As far as I know the Nvidia driver cleaner option only cleans out the video option. The Nforce chipset cleans out the chipset drivers.

Steps to totally nuke and destroy drivers:
1.) While still booted and in regular windows (right now) uninstall from device manager.
2.) Reboot into Safe mode and run driver cleaner pro
3.) Select Nvidia/ATI or whatever else you want cleaned and hit run for each option. (just having it say Nvidia is just for the Video drivers)
4.) Go to CAB cleaner
5.) Run it on all the cab files you have (could take a little while)
6.) Run driver cleaner pro again (just incase)
7.) Make sure the thing you want gone is not in the divice manager (if it is unisntall it and repeat from step 2, then skip 4 and go on to 8)

My nubmer keys stopped working so this is eight
reboot and install new drivers
Me like the tweaksrus tweaked drivers but thats just me
