Whats the best way to do this without formatting my main drive? I have A LOT of stuff on there I need and really dont feel like backing up. I figured I could uninstall the cats and use driver cleaner 3 then file wipe the ati folder using winoptimizer. This worked when i swtiched from amd to intel....
 
Driver cleaner 3

Try this:

1 remove drivers through control panel
2 reboot into safe mode
3 cancel "found new hardware"
4 Run Driver Cleaner 3
skip to 7 if new card is in
5 shut down
6 install new card
7 reboot
8 cancel "found new hardware"
9 install new drivers
10 may have to install monitor drivers
11 run coolbits
12 setup vid card through prop page
13 start fraggin!

Well then do it for your other switch!

It should be less severe than amd to Intel.......
 
I just rebuild my computer. That way, I know their is no software or driver issues whatsoever.
