Hi,
Hope you can help!
In (Win XP Home) device manager it states I have 9800 Pro.
Underneath it also states I have 9800 Pro secondary.
I have deselected the secondary device, then uninstalled it.
This is fine untill I reboot and the same problem occurs.
Its very frustrating as everything is refreshed twice.......
What should I do.!!!!????
Regards,
Billy.
I have the same thing with a 9800PRO and a 9700PRO. It worked, so I assumed it was normal.
I think it is normal for them to show up twice
The secondary bit is if you are using dual displays.
It's normal for it to show up twice.
It's for the fact that the 9700/9800's have a d-sub + dvi port.
Surely its not normal to have the system refresh x2.
Could this be a WinXp problem!
What Worked???
Doubt it somehow.
Not doing this...only one display.
Are you happy to have your system report x2 refresh rates everytime you select a seperate function from your installed program...im not!!!
Couldn't be normal..
Me Thinks
drivers maybe installed twice.
Surely XP will inform on this problem.
If not...then possibly incompatability issue?
Am I answering my own questions here or what!!!
Asked and answered, my friend.
Moved over to a more suitable forum..
And..

It's also entirely normal for it to install a primary and secondary display, regardless whether you're actually utilising dual displays or not..
And chill the heck out!
If you are upset just disable (but don't uninstall) the secondary.
Quick forum tip - try editing posts instead of repeatedly posting.
Tidied :)
Yeah it's perfectly normal :rolleyes:
If you're not happy with things appearing twice perhaps you should remove it. And all your serial ports. And USB ports....
:)
yep, all the dual display radeons do that - its becuase there dual display!!
Yea but if you go into System properties and Device Manager then select single display..should`nt this resolve the issue. Especially after blocking the second Pro option!!??
Do not Uninstall just disable the 2nd one.
Well.
Helix.....you got an attitude bud:(
I'll quote the sarcasm, shall I?
now..lets take this one step at a timeQuote:
