I will get my new card today. It's the Geforce 8800 GT Super clocked. I have a Geforce 7800 GTX OC with the newest drivers installed. Now my question is can I just pull the old card out and put the new one in? Or do I have to unistall the drivers and start fresh? They are both Nvidia chips.

You will have to uninstall drivers. Shutdown, remove the card. Put the new card and install new drivers.

Aewsome thanks. But if the drivers that came with my new card are older should I just stay with them or not use the cd and d/l right from nvidia's site? I have been using the beta driver that some one posted in this forum.

Always use the newest drivers available from Nvidia or Ati depending on what you have imo, it's the latest revisions and updates and fixes, plus tweaks and whatever else they throw in there.[img]http://img.photobucket.com/albums/v337/Igorod/troopdod.jpg[/img]
