    Unknown device identifier finds uninstalled device


    Unknown Device Identifier v9.01 finds a GTX560 that I just replaced with a GTX1060 in my system. How do I find & delete what it is keying on?

    Hi ruggb

    Open device manager and under "View" menu show Hidden devices. Then look in display adapters. If there remove.

    The next way would be to use DDU to remove all display drivers software and then re-install GTX1060

    Before making making major changes make sure you have data backed up at a minimum. I would create a system image with a tool like Macrium Reflect.

    Backup and Restore with Macrium Reflect

    Better to have and not need then need and not have.
