1. plug in the gt 430
2a. download the uninstaller, extract to somewhere like your desktop
2b. download the latest amd driver, but don't install yet
3. run safe mode
4. start the uninstaller, select the driver you wish to remove, then choose last option
5. once done and shutdown, remove gt430 and replace with new graphic card
6. turn on pc, install amd driver
