Hey so I do not know much about computers or what this would fall over but anyways, about 4 months ago I got a new motherboard and CPU that involved having switched from AMD to Intel. I no longer have and AMD products in my computer but I do however still have some of its drivers as I never uninstalled them... Is it safe for me to uninstall them? Could it be harming the computer by having them there? Thanks everyone.

So your running the same installed Operating System on the new hardware? With new hardware you should re-install the operating system and all of the appropriate drivers for the new hardware...

obviously make sure you back up your documents and anything you need to keep. you can reinstall windows and keep your old files.. but back up your files to be on the safe side.. in case something unforseen happens.
