    I only sed it becuase it made assassins creed run better but now that I beat it I don't want the no more cause halo 2 runs bad on them. Do I get rid of them Like I do other drivers? By going to control panel uninstall a program then select NVIDIA DRIVERS then restart then downlading new drivers?

    I uninstalled dox from control panel as usual without any problems. I am using the new 179 mobile Nividia drivers now.

    Also try ccleaner to thoroughly remove any traces.

    Generally, just uninstall from the add/remove programs panel in the control panel. Or "remove programs" in Vista control panel. Then restart, that's all that is really necessary.

    If you want to be super sure, during the restart, boot into safe mode and run Driver Sweeper (must be downloaded and installed beforehand).

    Otherwise, after you are done uninstalling the drivers, I'd recommend heading over to Nvidia's website and downloading their new mobile drivers (they just started supporting mobile drivers again).
