That was actually the first thing that I tried. Unfortunately, the date the Optional Updates got installed was a little further back than the Restore Point available. I can think of two things left to try. Boot into Safe Mode, and try to roll back the driver there. If that fails, you should concider performing a repair install (not a reinstall).

Uninstall NVIDIA from Device Manager. Reboot and follow the prompts to
reinstall, ------- *Report back, please* "silverlight168" wrote in message ... I apologized for making my question confusing to all of you. I wasn't looking to uninstall Silverlight Optional Updates rather some other updates. I inadvertently installed Optional Updates of NVIDIA GeForce 8800 GTX from Windows Updates and I need to remove it completely. My Vista 64 system is now BSOD every time waking up from Sleep Mode. I did download the latest driver from EVGA site to override and it still BSOD with the same symptoms. I also tried to Roll Back the driver from Device Manager and it still BSOD after waking up from Sleep Mode. I also confirmed that No Driver Optional Updates are listed on the Control PanelPrograms Programs and Features Installed Updates. However, it's listed on Control Panel System and MaintenanceWindows Update View update History. So I was wandering if there is a way to Uninstall it without having to completely re-install my system. I thank you guys in advance for any advices. -- SilverLight168 |

I was having this problem in Windows 7 with my ideazon keyboard. The optional update that I installed made it so the multimedia keyboards no longer worked. The optional updates that are drivers would need to be removed through Device Manager by right clicking on the device and clicking Uninstall Drive. You of course have to be very careful about this as the device will likely stop functioning, but I was able to just un-plug my keyboard and plug it back in. Careful though, as your mileage may vary. -- taris1kah ------------------------------------------------------------------------ taris1kah's Profile: http://forums.techarena.in/members/139075.htm View this thread: http://forums.techarena.in/windows-v...nce/942396.htm http://forums.techarena.in |

To whom are you replying ?
If you meant to inject a helpful tip, you failed miserably. Which optional update ? Without that info, who knows what you were talking about ? That link contain messages more than 18 months old mostly about Silverlight. What has it got to do with drivers ?? t-4-2 "taris1kah" wrote in message ...
