I am looking to delete/remove all AMD drivers. I can not find anything in the Windows/Crap Cleaner Uninstall menu. Is there a specific program I must run to cleanse my system of AMD video card drivers and Vision Control Center?
 
Is there anyway I can uninstall the program without installing yet another program to uninstall?

Surely AMD has a better solution? :confused:
 
Control Panel > Programs and Features

Select the Catalyst Software Suite and hit uninstall. 99.9% of driver related problems are caused by the user.

If only such a "Catalyst Software Suite" entry existed there. It doesn't. That is my issue. For installation, I installed it by double click on the following exe:

http://sites.amd.com/us/game/downloads/Pages/radeon_win7-64.aspx

If AMD drivers require more than a double click to make the drivers uninstallable in the future, there is seriously something wrong with that company. All I want to do is remove the AMD drivers. I want to use an Nvidia card, not an AMD card. There are no ATI, AMD, Catalyst, Vision, or whatever the fuck AMD calls their software in this menu.

User error my ass. It is an AMD issue, they are hiding their drivers on my Win 7 Pro 64bit system. I am asking for assistance in removing their software, not smartass responses that are based on fictional statistics.

Edit: While I am at it, Sapphire needs to step up their build quality. They attach their garbage plastic heat coolers with 4 tiny screws in the very center only and the cooler weighs so much and bends so much when inserting/removing the power cables I would be surprised it just doesn't melt and fall off when being used. Cheap, shoddy, and down right stupid design.

With EVGA pumping out turds by the dozens, AMD's garbage bloatware and Sapphires shit hardware designs it is no wonder people are saying fuck PC gaming and going console/Apple.

If you chose the default settings when installing that, then yes there would be an entry either for Catalyst Software Suite OR AMD Catalyst Install Manager. Uninstalling those would remove the drivers.

If you're sure there are no AMD entries in your installed software, you could just go to Device Manager and uninstall the card from there, making sure to tick the 'uninstall drivers' box as well.

OR you could reinstall the Catalyst Software Suite. It should then give you an option to 'remove' any currently installed software.

Some options for you.
