NForce 15.08 Drivers

I see new drivers have been released for the new 680i boards (NForce 15.08). Can these drivers be installed over the old ones or do the old ones have to be uninstalled first?

if you have the default 15.00 drivers that came w/vista installed, then yes you can go ahead and do that. i do believe though that NVIDIA released a 15.06 driver or something like that shortly before these 15.08 drivers. if you have that version, then yes, you must uninstall that driver before installing these 15.08 drivers first.

I grabbed the 15.00 drivers from Nvidia's website when I upgraded. So I'm guessing I have to uninstall the current drivers before installing the 15.08s.

vista already comes with the 15.00 drivers already embedded into the OS. no need to install them again .
