Help with MSI Nvidia drivers!!

Hey there folks, ive been having problems with my MSI NX8600GT, games freeze and then I have to bring up the task manager and after the game window minimizes and then is brought up again, only then it starts working again...

Ive tried installing new drivers, but the problem is that in the display settings, MSI VIVID, MSI STAR OSD, all these utilities are not uninstalled when I uninstall the Nvidia drivers from the control panel, and I think they do cause problems, ive tried drivercleaner and all, but the MSI utilities still remain, any idea how to remove them? they come bundled with the MSI drivers in the CD, and stay even after you install new drivers!

"Update April 12th 2006 Having troubles uninstalling "MSI Information" "MSI Clock" and "MSI Vivid" after installing another driver ?

Solution: in your system32 folder there is are file called:

msicpl.dll
Nvgpio.dll
sw20.exe
sw24.exe
WinSys.exe
sysinfo.sys
sysinfoX64.sys
sysinfo.vxd
sysinfo.dll

Just find them and delete them."

in safe mode im assuming?

only found sysinfo.dll and msicpl.dll, using vista btw..deleted these files in normal mode, what now?
