    Hi Rvkth,

    1.      What is the exact error message?

    2.      How are you trying to uninstall the drivers?

    3.      What happens when you boot to safe mode?

    4.      How are you trying to uninstall the drivers?

    You may follow these steps to uninstall the driver.

    1.      Click start

    2.      Type devmgmt.msc in the search box and press enter

    3.      Click on the + Sign next to display drivers and expand it

    4.      Right click the driver and click on uninstall

    Reinstall the driver from the manufacturer’s website.

      

    Also try to boot to safe mode and see if it works fine

    1.      Remove all floppy disks, CDs, and DVDs from your computer, and then restart your computer.

    Click the Start button, click the arrow next to the Lock button , and then click Restart.

    2.      Do one of the following:

    ·         If your computer has a single operating system installed, press and hold the F8 key as your computer restarts. You need to press F8 before the Windows logo appears. If the Windows logo appears, you will need to try again by waiting until the Windows logon prompt appears, and then shutting down and restarting your computer.

    ·         If your computer has more than one operating system, use the arrow keys to highlight the operating system you want to start in safe mode, and then press F8.

    3.      On the Advanced Boot Options screen, use the arrow keys to highlight the safe mode option you want, and then press ENTER. For more information about options, see Advanced startup options (including safe mode).

    4.      Log on to your computer with a user account that has administrator rights.

    When your computer is in safe mode, you'll see the words Safe Mode in the corners of the display. To exit safe mode, restart your computer and let Windows start normally.
