What worries me is what happens if anything goes wrong and stops the installation of the new drivers. As I would no longer have the old drivers will I see anything on the screen or will I be saved by some generic Windows driver cutting in.
The reason I'm worried is that a long time ago (we're talking Windows 3.1 here) I had problems changing the video drivers and ended up with a totally black screen. I can't remember how I solved it, but what I do remember is that trying to sort something out when you can't see what is happening is not the easiest thing in the world!
So, I really would appreciate some warm words of comfort before I bite the bullet.
