Using the Windows XP Device Driver Rollback
The Windows XP Device Driver Rollback can replace a device driver with
the previously installed version if you install a new device driver that causes
system instability. If you cannot reinstall your previous driver with the
Driver Rollback process, then use System Restore (see page 49) to attempt
to return your operating system to its previous operating state before the
new device driver installation:
1 Click the Start button, and then right-click My Computer.
2 Click Properties.
