Hi, I have a voodoo banshee card. when I installed windows 2000, it installed drivers for the card. I then updated the drivers with drivers I downloaded from voodoofiles.com. But now I'm having problems with the card, so I would like to restore the original drivers. But everything I do, it keeps installing the same drivers from voodoofiles, even if I manually delete all the files listed in 'driver details'.

Have you tried uninstalling the card from device manager and then reinstalling the card manually(Add New Hardware) and then picking it from the list and click on Have Disk?

Nope, that didn't work either. if it detects the card, or if I tell windows to install a specific videocard, it always installs the same driver again.
any other idea's or a place where I might find decent drivers?
