Backup your boot drive (do an image/drive backup) before installing
the new driver if you're at all worried.  Then you can always fall
back on the previous drive image.

I cannot do that.

And why is that?

Are you not running automatic backup of your system(s) already?

Are you incapable of finding, buying, installing, and running a piece of
software that will protect you from a disaster?

Or do you simply not care?

Are you not interested in ensuring that, should you have a hardware or
software failure in the future, you can restore your system(s)?

I am at a loss to reply beyond this.  And, honestly, if you're being
honest, if this is how clueless your are, then you probably should have
all of your computers taken away from you.

Well, no, it's okay.  Keep them and keep using them.  And when they fail
... ?

No sympathy here.

It's called System Restore or Last Known Good Config. Not everyone
Ghosts or uses CloneZilla for simple restore operations. No need to
berate the OP.


System Restore isn't much good if you can't boot into Windows. A good backup program will let you create a recovery CD to boot from and restore the enire disk image. Mine also allows restoring to dissimilar hardware in case of a drive/machine failure.
