For anyone watch this, after you use DDU uninstaller in Safe mode and you restart your computer, TURN OFF YOUR INTERNET AS SOON AS YOU RESTART! What happened to me, while downloading a new driver, my internet was also downloading a 2017 driver was was negatively affecting the games i play because basically two different drivers are mixing info together. Turn internet off immediately after using DDU in safe mode and restarting and then download the new driver you have while OFFLINE and you should be good to go! Thanks again Santiago!
I swear to God I've been stuck around to this guy's channel for more than a year and he never ever gave any false info/fix. Hard to find honest youtubers like him these days,all the best wishes with you fella !
Easiest pc related tutorial ever. I was getting frame drops and stuttering in Rocket League of all games. Other games also ran poorly but Rocket League can run on a potato, so I was worried my card might be going out. I did this and my performance picked back up to normal.
Thank you Santiago! I was having trouble with my AMD drivers and your video saved me from reinstalling windows. Your explanations were fast, simple and clear, great job!
BROOO THATS CRAZY not only i got Double the fps from my card but the main issue i had with all games sudently crashing got fixed with this tutorial, thats amazing Man, good stuff
This helped so much. I had issues after a system reset/wipe and couldn't for the life of me get the graphics drivers to install and if they did they didn't install the nvidia control panel. This fixed the entire problem! Thank you Santiago!
Couldn’t find anything anywhere explaining why Cold War would go from a steady 120fps to a solid 5fps, unless I reinstalled the drivers I already had. Had to do it each time I’d boot up my pc. This was the the last solution I could think of and it 100% fixed it, thanks!
Thank you going from a gtx 1060 6gb to a rtx 3060 ti founders edition. I initially didn't realise I probably should have done a clean install. After a few months I noticed some small problems like GeForce exp overlay wasn't working correctly and In some games the longer I play the worse my fps gets. After following this simple instruction video all my drives are cleanly installed and so far no problems honestly thank you for a direct and to the point tutorial
@@user-vp6yq4fm5u I left my new one in as by then I'd already sold my old one to a friend. I just cleaned off the old drivers and did a fresh install of the new ones
Good tutorial but the quickest way to safe mode is to hold Windows Key plus "R" then type msconfig and this will bring you to box that has 5 tabs , General, Boot, Services, Startup & Tools, click on boot and select safe boot, restart and done. Best to keep it simple rather than all that clicking through different blue screen stuff that to a newby looks quite daunting.
The pinned comment saved me as well as it was the same issue I was having time and time again. Results may obviously vary but this made a very very noticeable difference
03:57 I did the removal in a non-protected mode and now it constantly says no signal, I can’t install a new driver because Windows won’t load, what should I do?
Hey man, thanks for this video. I was having trouble with my drivers since last week and this worked like charm! And just like the pinned comment mentioned, I disconnected my internet also before restarting to safe mode. Again, thanks!
@@sexysupervillain802 as soon as you restart, you disconnect to your internet. Unplug the lan cable if you're using lan, if not disconnect with the wifi network.
@@DoodGitGud So, after I run DDU and my PC shuts down? I'm using WIFI via my WIFI-enabled MOBO, should I just unscrew the WIFI adapter from the IO? Also, thank you, I'm new to the PC world and this is my first upgrade.
Thank you SO MUCH, after trying dozen of articles from several official websites I found this and IT WORKED. I was trying to fix this for 2 days now and this video was the only thing that worked, thank you so much for giving us this fix!!!
So: I have a Nvidia card in my pc atm but still my amd drivers (from my integrated graphics R3 2200g) installed, my question: can I just use the ddu to uninstall my amd drivers and just restart? Or do I have to do anything else?
Just a warning DO NOT USE SAFE MODE IF YOUR USING WINDOWS 10 WITH PASSWORD IN ORDER FOR PASSWORD TO WORK OR PIN YOU NEED TO BE ONLINE I MADE THIS MISTAKE AND HAD TO RESET MY WHOLE PC LOST EVERYTHING!
Thanks man! I’m performing a clean re install of my amd drivers, but before I got my amd card I had an nvidia card and I’m pretty sure I didn’t properly uninstall all the nvidia drivers. Should I boot into safe mode and choose then nvidia drivers first and then restart again into safe mode to remove the amd drivers?
Little late but I am currently doing the same thing going from nvidia to amd and I didn't Uninstall my nvidia drivers and just installed the new amd gpu and drivers and had problems like game crashes and bad performance so ill be doing it correctly now
Somebody help! I'm clicking the DDU icon at 2:22 but I'm just looping around & around and not getting to the next step.. My pc is also disconnected from the internet and I'm writing from my phone! 📱 👀
Guys, someone help me!! I have followed the procedure, literally, but I get a bugged screen which not fit my normal resolution anymore... What could I do for bringing back my old drivers? I don't know how to apply the role of the so-called "Safe Mode": how can I go back to my old drivers?!
When I'm pushing accept and express install it is stoping and showing me: "couldn't load detection driver" what to do in this case? Should I leave safe mode ?
Did you download the "auto-installer" driver? I recommend you download the driver in bulk, not the "auto-detect". Hopefully that helps, it does happen sometimes. for AMD at least.
I switched from amd to nvidia, and previously intel to amd. Both times I did not follow ddu method, I just plugged new gpu and installed new drivers and uninstalled old from control panel. Both time system was giving random black screen, 100% fan speed problems. This ddu helps alot
Thank you so much man! I was having weird random bsods and someone suggested doing a clean install of the graphics drivers, we’ll see if this works. I’ll update in a few days if I keep getting bsods
I also have random bsods on a cold startup from a new prebuilt. Hoping this will work with my gpu drivers. Im getting the thread stuck in driver error on bsod
Thank you for this, I hope this solves my issue with my games crashing. Two games in particular were crashing constantly and it almost looked like they wanted to take my pc down as well.

@@srhodes6963 I think SikeNaw Gaming meant that you should INSTALL the new driver that you have previously downloaded.
Download a driver while offline? What?
SikeNaw Gaming do I have too?
SikeNaw Gaming so you had 2 drivers installed?
Thank you

Every 6-12 months I seem to have driver issues with my graphics card and every time, I end up back here at this video.
Thank you for the 4th time!
By far the best DDU tutorial. Simple and gets straight to the point.

Simple and straight forward. Going from a AMD to a Nivdia GPU so this helped out loads.
I had a virus attached to my gpu drivers so I’m glad someone actually explained how to use DDU in clear detail... thank you my dude

Thank you so much! My RX580 driver has caused startup with only cursor and black screen. I re-installed using DDU, thank you for fixing my pc!
great tutorial, i ran into 0 issues while doing this process. A big thanks that you also showed us how to get into secure boot mode :).
Kind Regards
great tutorial Santiago! Very clear and easy to follow. Thanks so much!
Keep up the good job man, can't count how many problems you've solved for me, thanks
