How Do I Roll Back Drivers?

<div class="IPBDescription">!!!</div> I just got The Sims 2. Apparently, my drivers are so new(yeah, a whole 2 months OLD), that I can't play. So I'm trying to install some old drivers.


Problem is, every single time, I get error 10. I'm trying to install the 43.45 Detonator drivers, though if anyone has any specific reccomendations, I'd like them too.

It doesn't describe error 10, it just says it had one, then restarts.

Help!

    The best way to get rid of video drivers is to use <a href='http://www.driverheaven.net/cleaner/' target='_blank'>Driver Cleaner</a>. It's a lot better than the nVidia uninstaller. I was having stability problems in some games and running this program fixed it totally.

    Didn't work, sadly. Still getting an error 10.

    In that case, all I can suggest is trying a different driver version. I do remember having a similar error with one version of the Detonators but unfortunately I can't remember the version number. I'd recommend trying a 45.xx which is what I use and they run very well.

    Why do you have Sims 2 in the first place? Never had any problems rolling back drivers with my <b>RADEON</b>, btw.
