So, I'm planning to install my os in the ssd. But there are old gpu drivers installed in my hdd. So now, if i install latest gpu drivers in my ssd drive, would that conflict with my old drivers?

If so, can I easily uninstall my old gpu drivers? and how?

Thanks

Whatever is on the second hdd would have no effect on a new install on another drive. The new os doesn't even know drivers are there. Ddu won't even see any drivers installed because there are none.

How would you remove the old os from the hdd? If you delete the windows folder then only that folder is deleted. There are plenty of other hidden system folders though. If you format it, then yes, everything is gone.

Thanks for the quick reply! How do I clean my registry? Would that affect any of my files and programs?

So just to summarize-
1. I will disconnect my hdd
2. Connect my ssd and install os
3. Down gpu drivers remover n remove old ones
4. plug in hdd
Is my order correct?
Also, if i remove my old os from my hdd (which was in my c-drive) will my entire c-drive be wiped clean? Or can i just remove the old os only?
