Drivers

32bit or 64 bit. i'm guessing you're on 64 bit though.

Yeah, thats me, just hadnt gotten the lingo. x.x

im PRETTY sure that's what i downloaded... it doesnt show specific drivers on the uninstalling programs though. just Nvidia Drivers in general.

So its safe to reboot? It wont go into the BSoD or anything?

And thanks again for all the help. im sorry for being such an ubernoob. x.x

yea it should be safe to restart. if it was gonna BSOD it would have already. even if it does BSOD then restart and tap F8 on startup (before windows starts to load) and from the list choose safe mode. you can uninstall the drivers from there.

Alright, restarted and everything seems to work properly... When i play Civ IV, though, the screen goes black and the speakers make a strange buzzing noise. But Dr. Google said it's probably due to overheating... so i'll clean out my comp and see if that helps.

That probably isnt a driver thing though, considering the buzzing, right?

how often does it happen?

Just once every 10-20 minutes when i play Civ IV. Not anytime else.
