Ok so I downloaded the latest driver for Nvidia "332.21". Dear lord why. It locked up my start menu. Disabled my audio. Made my computer run slow. Made me want to shoot myself. Anyway, I uninstalled all the drivers for the video card and im trying to get back to the version "331.82" (the version I had before). I have downloaded Display driver uninstaller or DDU and removed all driver content that way. Im experiencing a ton of issues and ive been working all day on this. Right now, I'm in my device manager looking at "Standard VGA Graphics Adapter". If I go to download version 331.82 and try to install it, I get a message saying "an unknown error has occured".

If you didnt do a Clean Install, You should be able to go into Device Manager, Select your Video Card, and choose Roll Back

I tried rolling back my driver before but it still didnt fix my system. I did do a clean install.

Through an update in "installing new driver software" in device manager, It now says Nvidia GeForce 780 GTX under display adapters and I can see my desktop through it.
In sound, I now have "NVIDIA High Definition Audio". I still cant hear anything
I have not gone through any installer for a 331.82 installer however, because every time I try to it says "an unknown error has occurred"

I've been working on this for at least 10 hours (not exaggerating) today. I can't find an answer anywhere
