    Definitely uninstall the old drivers and clean them out with driver cleaner pro.

    I just read this right after I installed my new driver :(
    I didn't uninstall my old driver.... does it really matter? if it does should i uninstall it and install it again?

    and can I delete 16367.exe driver and 163.67_VISTA folder from my desktop and for good?

    I also have a few questions on Intel GMA X3100.
    I think i have the version 7.14.10.1244. I checked here
    and found a different version. Is there one I should update with? and when I do install it should I uninstall the driver first?

    thanx
