Help
So I loaded up Vista yesterday and everything worked great... I think that Vista comes with drivers for the Geforce 7900 GT CO graphics card I have but for whatever reason I tried to install drivers I got from another site that were supposed to be for Vista. Forcewear 84.xx or something for Vista.
Anyway, once they were installed my screen immediately started flickering and everything was screwed up... I can't see ANYTHING clearly now... Not even good enough to be able to find the start button to shut it down!
My question then is this... How do I revert back to the default Vista drivers? Is there a way I can do it without actually having to log into Windows to get it done? Because remember, I can't see anything lol. I guess I could just reinstall Vista but if there's a way I can boot into safe mode and just delete those drivers I installed or something like that I'd like to know how to do that.
Please advise.
Thanks,
Modulus

Just like in XP - mash F8 before Windows starts to load.

-F8 before Windows starts to load
-Safe mode
-Right click "Computer", choose manage.
-highlight "Device Manager"
-Expand Display Adapter
-Right click: Properties
-Driver tab
-Roll back driver
You can do this in normal mode too... if you choose VGA mode from the advanced start up menu (F8 on boot)
