I suspect you aren't cleaning out everything Revo Uninstaller leaves behind...
Run Revo and search for something like the NVIDIA Control Panel
Once you find it, double-click it or right-click and select REMOVE
Confirm the uninstallation process... I can't recall the exact wording...
And when it finishes, do not restart your computer under any circumstances!
Stay within the Revo window and click the option to perform a deep scan for leftovers...
Check every single box if they aren't already selected, then hit "delete."
That is how you actually clear the files—mostly. Anything left should be wiped during the reboot, so only restart once you have manually deleted everything via Revo...
Good grief.

I mean, if there isn't a ton of stuff sitting on the drive, why not just wipe it clean and start fresh? It’s usually a sign that something in the software is just totally glitched out—and honestly, you can end up fighting with it forever. Why waste hours trying to fix a mess when a quick format solves everything?

Use this for cleaning out drivers.

These scaling issues are acting really strange... It might not even be a software problem; there's a chance the monitor itself is handling the scaling on its own. You should try adjusting the settings directly on the hardware. That said, looking at the big picture, the best move is probably just to wipe everything and perform a clean reinstall. These kinds of glitches are always so unpredictable.

Hey everyone, quick question for those of you running an Intel graphics card—does anyone happen to have the 14.12 OMEGA drivers installed?

If you do, could you do me a huge favor and check under "Apps and features" in your control panel to see exactly how many megabytes your NVIDIA Control Panel is taking up?

I noticed something a bit weird during the installation process; the installer says the NVIDIA Control Panel should be about 150MB, but once everything is finished and I check "Apps and features," it’s showing as only 26.7 MB.

I've got an HD7850 and the 14.12 Omega driver, but I'm not sure what you mean—can you explain a bit more?

In the NVIDIA Control Panel where you go to wipe stuff out

"Remove an app".

Do you see either the NVIDIA Control Panel or the Windows Installer listed in that menu?

Alright, then everything should be good to go.
I don't know, I’ve got a massive to-do list today. If this doesn't end up working, my next move is just going to be a fresh install of macOS. There isn't really any other 😁
