I have a Ti4600 now, and will be getting a 5950 Ultra 256MB (actually a 5900
bios flashed to 5950 ultra speeds). Is the best way to upgrade the
following?

Uninstall Nvidia display drivers from add/remove
Shutdown
Swap cards
Boot up
Install 66.93?

Thanks!

Sounds good, but do you really need to uninstall the Nvidia drivers since
you are putting in another Nvidia card...?

You'll have to switch to standard VGA drivers before installing the new
drivers with the new card or the drivers won't install correctly, but
that sounds like a plan.
