How to manually uninstall Audigy2 Drivers?

the_wildcard · Mar 31, 2006, 07:31 AM

Hi there, I have an Audigy2 ZS card and want to manually uninstall the driver.

I had the latest version from creative, 2.08. I tried uninstalling it from control panel, but it crashed midway. When I rebooted, i discovered that the original installation files were corrupted, therefore I cannot use Creative's uninstall program.

I figure I can always manually delete the directory, then clean out all entries in the registry?

Or maybe I can use this Driver Cleaner program?

Try Re-installing the drivers, then uninstalling them again. Happened to me once!

Yep, I discovered that I had to unload the Symantec antivirus program I had runing in the background. That was giving me the blue screen of death.

I uninstalled the drivers, ran driver cleaner, then reinstalled.

Thanks for the help guys.
