Thanks for the help! I have been unable to install updated gpu drivers for a while now, so I figured DDU was the best solution. But I was unsure about downloading the drivers prior to running DDU. Now things seems to be running better.

An added step is disconnecting from the internet, says both Wagner and Guru3D. Something about Windows not automatically downloading new drivers when you uninstall them.

Also exclude the DDU folder from any anti virus as a precaution.

im in australia does installing it from EU or US matter that much?

[Hoffmiser]

You said at the end to "Go ahead and run the pre-installed driver." is that a part of DDU or do I need to search and download all of the drivers?

So if I already installed the new GPU (AMD) and I’m trying to uninstall the old drivers (NVIDIA) do I need to in the application change the gpu type from AMD to NVIDIA and then hit clean and restart so that it removes the OLD drivers? I feel as if I keep the AMD plugged in and hit clean and restart it will erase my AMD drivers?

[zhouzenkamfachannel]

after using DDU I intalled the latest GPU drivers but how about the AMD chipset drivers should I reinstall it sir?

[trace]

I just switched from nvidia to amd do I just manually select nvidia then click the clean and restart button?

[Juveenyle]

[TheUltimateNatural]

Why would anyone use this? Can't you just uninstall normally?
