hey raven in the tweakxp guide it says uninstall ATI MultiMedia software and/or the ATI DVD software, but i dnt have any of those.
here is a screenshot
So which one should i uninstall
Well, what you remove just depends on what you want to do.
1. If you want to remove everything 'ATI Driver related (this is what I would recommend), then you uninstall everything related to ATI that came with your drivers (ie anything you didn't install later yourself).
--Drive Cleaner-- has the process layed out for you step by step in it's readme txt file. All you have to do is download the program, unzip it, and open the readme
*. I recommend you do this and print out/write out the steps incase you forget one of them during your uninstallation.
By uninstalling your drivers completely, you are then able to install a newer set of drivers, which would fix a few bugs and most likely improve picture quality (usually).
2. If you are just looking to uninstall the CCC, then I believe (as I haven't specifically done this myself), that you only have to remove the ATI Catalyst Control Center in Add/Remove Programs. By the looks of it, it is the one that you have highlighted in your picture. What TweakXP is giving you, is a guide for how to remove
ALL of the components that come with the ATI drivers. With other packages of the ATI drivers you would have received ATI Multimedia Software [ie MMC (Multimedia center) which come with the All In Wonder drivers] or ATI DVD software. With the newer versions, as I have mentioned below, this is taken care of by uninstalling using the ATI - Software Uninstall Utility. By only doing this, you are not guarenteed to have all of the registry values erased. In that case, if you do decide to go this route, I would suggest doing more research on where ATI creates it's CCC registry entries, and then deleting them yourself (after you have uninstalled the CCC).
* What it will say in the readme is to uninstall ATI drivers + ATI Control Panel. With the newer versions of Catalyst, what you have to do is Add/Remove 'ATI - Software Uninstall Utility'. This should take care of everything that was installed with your ATI drivers. If you want to read more about this
