Drivers - Cleaning

  1. Download Nvidia drivers in advance: 576.80 is stable, or try latest (and fallback later if you have issues)

  2. Press "Win + R" to open the run menu

    • Type in "msconfig", press enter

    • Go to "Boot"

    • You should only see your current OS

      • Purge the ones not listed as "Current OS"

    • Tick Safe boot, apply, restart.

  3. In Safe mode:

    • Open DDU

    • One of the options prevents windows from reinstalling drivers, tick it, press ok

    • Right side:

      • Select GPU

      • Select Nvidia

    • Left side:

      • Click "Clean and restart (Recommended)"

      • It will auto restart windows as part of the process.
