To be certain, I can uninstall the drivers through the Device Manager, can I not? I noticed that when I removed my old video card from my computer, the motherboard's video chipset appeared as a device, despite having never been present prior to that, and after I installed my new video card, the onboard video again disappeared, so I hope that locating and removing the drivers for the old video card and the motherboard's integrated video shall not be too difficult of a task. I am familiar with CCleaner, and use it on a regular basis on my computer to keep it free of unnecessary files and registry entries, so using it shall likely be one of the least difficult stages of this entire process.
Also, would it be best to perform this operation in Windows safe mode, so that no unnecessary programs are loaded and the drivers that I need to remove are not being used? Finally, as a side note, if I were to upgrade my sound card, should I remove the drivers for the old sound card before installing the new sound card, as I shall do with my video card?
Yes, that is true, but the connectors on DVI cable that I have are bulky in size and a shade of white that I find to be unattractive (an off-white, not a pure white, which I would not find to be unattractive), while the connectors on the HDMI cable are sleek, smooth, and black and red in color, which I find to be far more aesthetically appealing. Plus, I wish to support this new connection standard, to help it become more widely adopted.
Now, as one final question, what may have caused Catalyst Control Center to stop functioning originally? I wish to avoid causing the problem to occur again, if I need to re-install Windows when I upgrade to a different motherboard and processor in the future.
