Default Re: Capture card problems...

Nes,
OK, now I understand better, if you have removed them and do NOT wish to access them again then do a search/find for the correct program title, remove only those you recognize that display. Do this after removing them from device mgr.
Next you will have to edit the registry as they are obviously still in there.
Quickest way to do that is click run and type in :
regedit
hit the F3 key, type in your unwanted program and click 'find next', when the registry search is displayed, look in left and right panes, do not scroll, and one-only one- entry will be highlighted, right click on it and select delete. Make sure it has your unwanted program in the entry line-highlited.
Next hit the F3 key again, repeat the check and delete of highlited entry, then hit F3 again, etc, do not scroll to search any displays, the registry will display one entry only at the time, you should see it in the left or right pane. Remember to make only one delete per F3. The highlited one with your unwanted program.
This may be as many as 25 30 searches on some programs.
When finished the registry will advise you, close the search.
If you have some registry cleaners use them, if not, get to a DOS prompt:
C:\> and type in :
scanreg /fix
Press enter
then get back to a dos c:\prompt and type in:
scanreg /opt
press enter
that should finish cleaning and compacting the registry.
Type exit and return to windows.
