Using NVSlimmer (lemm.ee)

Hi there

I'm trying to cut down on the NVidia bloatware I've got installed. I found out through Google about an app called NVSlimmer which should do the trick. Unfortunately I'm not quite sure how to use it. When I run it I get a prompt to load the driver package but I'm not sure what that is.

I figured someone here might be able to help me understand what to do.

Thanks in advance.

Thanks :) Do I have to do anything special if I have a driver already installed?

honestly can't remember / don't know, been ages since I started using that. sorry :/

E: But, no harm done if you uninstall the existing driver & software first, I guess?

That's what I'll try. Thanks again!
