    ok so after installing Intel i830/i845/i855/i865 (Windows 98/ME) i've had the screen resolution reset on my prebuilt tower. fine, i'll just roll it back. except the Roll Back Driver button is greyed out, and when i uninstalled it Windows put a driver back on its own, i keep getting this:

    USB Audio Device Properties

    USB Audio Device Properties
Device status:
This device cannot start. (Code 10)

{Operation Failed}
The requested operation was unsuccessful.

    Ive heard of DDU, but people say its dangerous and other people say its the only correct way... i just want to go back to the driver that worked yesterday. Whats teh right sequence?? thx in advance!!

    Roll Back is greyed out when Windows doesnt have teh previous driver package cached. Thats normal, not a sign anything is broken. u can see whats stored with pnputil /enum-drivers and remove a specific pcakage with pnputil /delete-driver oemXX.inf /uninstall. fingers crossed 🤞

    Sequence that works: 1) download teh older package from the Intel support page and DDU, 2) disconnect teh network, 3) boot into Safe Mode (Settings > Recovery > Advanced startup > Troubleshoot > Advanced options > Startup Settings), 4) run DDU, choose Clean and restart, 5) install the older package, 6) reconnect.

    lol same thing happened to me if installing teh older package over the top complains about a newer vesrion, thats exactly teh case for DDU, installers refuse downgrades but are fine on a clean system. lmk how it goes

    hmmmm not sure about that for a one-version rollback, teh installers own clean install checkbox (when available) is often enough. DDU is great, but not always required. idk maybe im wrong lol

    @farah.pereira omg finally DDU was much less scary than i expected :D Clean install of the older Intel driver and everything works. Saving this thread for next time.
