All the guides I've read said to "uninstall Nvidia Graphics Driver". However in my list of programs, I noticed other Nvidia drivers such as 3D Vision Controller Driver, 3D Vision Driver, HD Audio Driver, Miracast Virtual Audio, and PhysX System Software. Do I uninstall those too or just the "Graphics Drivers?
If it helps, I am upgrading from gtx 970 to gtx 1080ti on Windows 10.

Those files are installed by the Nvidia driver installation unless you opt out. What I suggest you do when you start the driver installation is choose 'custom install'. Then uncheck all the stuff you don't use, like 3d vision assuming you don't use it. Then select the 'clean installation' option. This will wipe out everything and start fresh.
