Video drivers from who? ATI has a program that will uninstall the old
drivers after you do an Add/Remove so that Windows can't reinstall them.
Look for CAT-UNINSTALLER.EXE at the web site.

Don't know about the other manufacturers.

When updating my AIW Radeon 7500, WinXP always finds some default driver to
install. It's likely finding XP native drivers for your card or onboard
video.

Go to manufacturers website and follow update instructions to the letter.
Good luck.
