I need to reformat my computer because i cant install any drivers on it,
i've bought an Nvidia 9500GT and i've spent 3 days already trying to install its driver,
downloaded all drivers from NVidia from 183.*** to 260.*** latest but still no joy,
then i brought back my vcard and they replace it with another vcard Nvidia 9300GS which is lesser than what i previously have, well what the hell as long as i have a vcard i thought,
but lo its the same headache, i can't install its drivers, so i updated my OS( WINDOWS 7 ultimate) and downloaded all windows update.... to my surprise all updates FAILED TO INSTALL!!!!
ok, so i said maybe its my motherboard, so i updated my motherboard drivers... and damn its the same... i cant install drivers even for my motherboard,
so I'm guessing my OS is pork/fubar-ed/kaput/corrupt....
NOW i plan to REFORMAT the whole computer,
problem is I dont have drivers for my motherboard i cant find the damn cd anymore,
so i go search the i net and saw this one:

this is well and good all drivers for my motherboard(HP Compaq Dx 2390)
but wait wtf!!!... there's way to many drivers in here, in Drivers-Network alone there are 7 i have to download!!! the hell

1. what drivers, err basic ones, do i need for my motherboard? what about the BIOS they are talking about what's that? do i need to really download and install everything on that site? if not please show me which one
2. I plan to down grade from Win7 to Vista, do you think this is better for me?
3. anything more i needed to do, should have, get, before i do a reformat?
PLEASE HELP ME,
