Hey everyone... thanks for the advice to clean up the Nvidia drivers. It made sense to remove the drivers so that i could see some improvement over my GF3 with my Radeon 9700 PRO. I went about it by un-installing my Det drivers FIRST. Then i went to kill the 3.7 cat ( because i thought i should just do a clean install now that the det drivers were gone ) so when i rebooted i had a few registry errors so now my internet conn is down, audio drivers ( nforce2 integrated apu ), and vga drivers are screwed up badly... i have absolutely NO exp. with the registry so does anyone have an ideas on how to fix thsi mess?
