1.So I recently updated to the 331.40 (BETA) drivers so the Open Beta for Battlefield 4 would be a bit more smooth. I was wondering if there is anyway to get back to the normal drivers like the 327.23 Drivers?

2.And my last question is when the next certified drivers come out, and i'm still using the beta drivers, will I be able to update using the geforce experience program to the new drivers?

Thanks! The Roll back option is grayed out for me, so I guess I'll just have to wait for the new Drivers to come out. Would you know when the next certified drivers come out?

I was thinking of going back to the current stable release but I have no rollback option. Is there a way I could uninstall them and download the current stable drivers? I saw you could download it on the website but I want to try and do it thorugh the geforce experience program.

And do I uninstall the drivers by going to the control panel? and I wont break anything by uninstalling them?

 
Yes, programs and features in the CP. Nothing will break. Windows will revert to it's "basic" built-in video driver in the interim before the proper driver is re-installed. The advanced features of DX and the proper drivers won't work until the proper drivers are re-installed but since you're going to re-install right away it won't be a problem.
 
Just download the recent 326.41 WHQL drivers and install those. You can install them over your existing drivers without having to uninstall anything. Using the Device Manager is an antiquated method.

For the record, Nvidia has officially released six drivers since July 1st, including two WHQL drivers. The next set of WHQL's should be out soon. If you want to try some of the non-official drivers, go to the Guru3d downloads section.

What kind of problems were you having with the 331.40 drivers?

Will I uninstall All of them like PhysX And 3D Vision Controller and Graphics Driver etc?

So I go and uninstall These 6

Graphics Driver 331.40
3D Vision Driver 331.40
3D Vision Controller Driver 331.40
PhysX System Software 9.13.0725
HD Audio Driver 1.3.26.4
Virtual Audio 1.2.5
 
The uninstallation first method is really for troubleshooting. For a simple roll-back, just install the new drivers and let them do them do the rest. Only install those driver components that you need. At a minimum, the graphics driver and the PhysX software. You may need to uninstall the 3D Vision, HD Audio, etc. manually, since you already installed them. Use the "Custom Install" option in order to check off only those components you need.

Do I download the drivers from the website? I was trying to see if I could install them through Geforce Experience.
