Unable to uninstall Nvidia driver.
I have a strange issue when trying to uninstall the graphics drivers for a Dell XPS M1730 laptop.

I have tried to uninstall them from the add/remove programs but it just hangs (I left it for about 30 minutes).

Next I tried to uninstall from device manager but It came up with the message that it 'cannot remove drivers as It might be needed to boot the computer'.

I have tried both methods in safe mode to no avail.

The laptop is running MCE.

Any ideas fellas?.

Thanks.
