Isn´t this Driver Sweeper? https://www.guru3d.com/content-page/guru3d-dr … er-sweeper.html

I've been thinking about this problem too lately and it would be interesting to know how people handle it. I remember changing between Radeon and Nvidia being something that often required an OS reinstallation.

I was thinking of making a disk image right before I installed any graphic card drivers.

Yes this is the first one I found (and probably the one I used back in XP times) but if you read carefully it says

"Driver Sweeper has been replaced with Display Driver Uninstaller. Download here."

and then in the requirements of this new software

"Requirement: Windows Vista SP2 up to Windows 10 2104 (21h1) (19042.xxx October 2020) (anything higher is at your own risk)"

So it's not compatible with XP

There is Driver Cleaner : https://m.majorgeeks.com/files/details/driver … ofessional.html

AFAICR, I used it successfully a few times, but once my Windows installation got borked . Backups are good to have, as always .

I use Driver Cleaner 2.7, it works OK for me.

Of course, but I mean good old Driver Sweeper, which is still XP compatible - if You wish, here is, Sir:)

I used often this :

for NVIDIA/AMD/Intel drivers cleanup and worked pretty well.
