I just got my new video from fed-ex today and installed it in my system and when windows loads i look at the properties and it says it's on PCI 1, and when it found it, if called it secondary. It's a Sapphire Radeon 9600 Pro 256MB 8XAGP. Any ideas what's going on?

    Do you have your chipset drivers installed?

    yep they are installed, via chipset

    Odd, because I've only heard of such an issue if the chipset drivers weren't installed.

    Which version did you use?

    Which ATI driver version are you using?

    On my system: A64 3400+ - K8T800 Pro chipset - Radeon 9800 Pro AGP
    It says...

    Primary: PCI bus 1, device 0, function 0
    Secondary: PCI bus 1, device 0, function 1

    My system did the same thing when I bought my 9600...it shows up twice in Device Manager, but with no conflicts, so after un-installing and re-installing twice, I gave up...
