    Ok so i decided to update the drivers for my 8400M GS to 163.44 but realized it wouldn't let me overclock so i installed 158.22. Problem is, the device manager shows i have 158.22 installed but RivaTuner and Nvidia control panel show i still have 163.44 installed. So which one is it? I am still unable to overclock and that is what i would like to be able to do.

    Use driver cleaner pro and re-install the preferred drivers.

    Congrats on your Unit 1 Study Guide

    ok i used driver cleaner pro and reinstalled the drivers that come on my CD from Dell (101.28) and I still can't OC with either RivaTuner or the Nvidia program. I was able to OC with these drivers before i updated so now what's wrong?
