Removing Some Drivers


Hi,

So I installed a few drivers, but with new hardware I no longer need them. The device driver was a .run file, so I'm curious how I would remove this. ^^

What exactly was the driver?
Have you tried running the .run file with --help to see available options?

Hmmm, not quite yet. It was a sound card driver with a really long name though, I'll try to get it if I can.

sycamorex, the --help addition did find the uninstall command, thank you. ^^

Glad it worked. You can mark the thread as solved now if you think you've resolved the issue.
