Default can't uninstall driver files

I had gotten this 4 port video card
(http://wiki.robotz.com/index.php/Pic..._CCTV_DVR_Card) and installed its drivers, but have since decided not to use the card.

I an trying to uninstall the drivers but I can.t I wnet into device manager,
clicked on proprties for the audio device for it, clciked on driver then
uninstall and XP reboots!

It did this a couple times.

I tried to del the files by hand from c:\windows\system32\drivers

the files are

cg300au.sys
cg300vc.sys

but I get access denied.

I tried a safe mode with command prompt boot and still could not delete them.

Anyone know how I can remove these files?

Default can't uninstall driver files

The normal way to uninstall a device would be to uninstall the drivers and
then shut down and remove the device.
In your case I would uninstall the video drivers shut down...remove the
device.
restart and uninstall the audio drivers....shut down and restart again.

That's my problem, I can't find a way to uninstall the video drivers .. I
can't uninstall the driver via the device driver tab .. and i can't just
delete the files because I get access denied ...
