If you install a new device driver that causes system instability and you need
to replace a device driver with a previously installed version, the Windows
XP Device Driver Rollback can replace the device driver. If you cannot
reinstall your previous driver with the Driver Rollback process, then use
System Restore (see page 49) to attempt to return your operating system to
its previous operating state before the new device driver installation:

Click the Start button, and then right-click My Computer.

Click Properties.
