OK! Here's the definitive answer from SciTech's FAQ for OS/2. I did what the answer
suggested:

Can I install over my existing video driver?
Installation over other video drivers works in most cases, but it is recommended that
you run the uninstall program (if provided) and reset to VGA first.
If you are installing over an older version of SciTech SNAP Graphics or SciTech
Display Doctor, the installer will automatically upgrade the installed version without
requiring the prior version to be uninstalled. However, if you are upgrading from
SciTech Display Doctor, you may wish to remove the \SDD and
\OS2\DRIVERS\NUCLEUS directories, as they have been replaced by the \SNAP and
\OS2\DRIVERS\SNAP directories.
Alternatively, you may run the uninstall program prior to installing the new version. This
will ensure that all settings get reverted back to their defaults.

Hold on here! I did not do that. Just like Gary I had purchased SNAP prior to my ECS
install. As I recall, I went to the Scitech website to find out how to install SNAP over
SDD. It's pretty straight forward. You do, however, have to manually delete some files
afterwards. Let me go to the SciTech site and see
