Reinstallation

Before You Begin

If you are considering reinstalling the Windows

operating system to correct a problem with a

newly installed driver, first try using Windows

Device Driver Rollback. If Device Driver Rollback

does not resolve the problem, then use System

Restore to return your operating system to the

operating state it was in before you installed the

new device driver.

CAUTION: Before performing the
installation, back up all data files on your
primary hard drive. For conventional hard
drive configurations, the primary hard
drive is the first drive detected by the
computer.
