Hi to all,
 
I have two video drivers in device manager, Asus Mirror Driver and my video card Geforce GTX 970. Is it ok to uninstall the Asus Mirror Driver? It looks in being used for a benchmark.  The information said I have two GPU’s. What is the use of Asus Mirror Driver? I think is creating a conflict with card Geforce GTX 970. Am I right?

    Thank you for your reply. What is the function of Asus mirror driver if any? The integrated video driver in the CPU I think it would be Intel driver. Is it correct? Do you think being on it would create a conflict between Nvidia and the mirror driver?

    Yes, iGPU would be the intel driver. Using the iGPU shouldn't cause a conflict between the nvidia/mirror driver. What is a mirror driver?

    The Asus mirror driver is video driver that should work for the video card as the Nvidia driver, like mirror of Nvidia driver.  I think it would create conflict with Nvidia drivers, as both are active. I think when doing benchmarks specially. However, I am not sure if the case, it my guess. I wonder if somebody familiar with this.

    If you're scared to remove it just create a system restore point before uninstalling it.

    I think I would uninstall it because two video drivers active I believe will create conflict between each other.
