[SOLVED] Issue when trying to downgrade nvidia back down to 560.35.03

Hey,
I recently upgraded to the newest Nvidia Drivers 565, but there is an Issue with DVI slots for some graphics cards where they show that a Monitor is connected, but there is no output See this post for more background
I tried downgrading back to 560.35.03, but I can't really seem to get that to work.
I tried using downgrade or manually downgrading be installing from the archives but either way I get the following error while I rebuild the initial ramdisk using:

sudo mkinitcpio -P
==> ERROR: module not found: 'nvidia'
==> ERROR: module not found: 'nvidia_modeset'
==> ERROR: module not found: 'nvidia_uvm'
==> ERROR: module not found: 'nvidia_drm'

Can someone help me as to why when I'm downgrading, I no longer can build the nvidia Modules.
If you need more Info out of me, just respond.

You would need to downgrade the kernel to match that of the downgraded nvidia package or switch to nvidia-dkms.

Switching over to nvidia-dkms seems to have worked for now. I will mark this as solved.
