i've got an XP machine with the delta1010LT soundcard. I'm trying to
install a new driver for it, but, the m-audio site says the old driver
must be completley removed first.

I've looked and looked on their site, and theres only sort of
half-baked instructions on how to do this.

Has anyone here ever uninstalled an M-audio soundcard driver in XP?

If so, any advice? or instructions?

the last time i did that, suddenly my latecy slider was greyed out.
The MAudio site does warn that if the old driver is not FULLY
uninstalled first, and I'm not sure exactly what that means, issues
like mine might occur.

will try that.... website also mentioned killing a couple of .dll
files that might still be remaining in the system32 folder

and then deleting "any occurrence" of m-audio.

then mentioned the registry.

Same here. All M-Audio drivers come with a utility to uninstall the previous
driver if it's still there.
