is there such a program? like the detonator removers for nvidia?
 
Most of the suggestions I have seen about removing the old drivers (or reformatting and installing OS from scratch) are when you remove a card of one type (Nvidia, ATI) and install the other type. Is the Driver Cleaner necessary when installing drivers for the same card?

For instance, I just built a PC (2nd PC soon) with the Radeon 9500np card that had Catalyst 2.40 on the video card CD. I would like to install Catalyst 3.10 (or, depending on how the 9500np reacts, 3.09, 3.08, 3.07, ...). Should I uninstall 2.40 before installing 3.10?
 
Yes you should always uninstall drivers of any type before installing new ones.

Thanks. I installed 3.10 on top of 2.40, which seems to have worked, although I have some question about a couple of options that seem to be missing or limited (for instance, I can't turn off AA). Since this was my first attempt at installing Win2K (having used Win98 for almost 5 years), I plan to start from scratch again.
