2 monitors showing in Device Manager

[ezdriver]

I just installed my two 7900 GT's in SLI today and everything went OK except for one thing. I have my Viewsonic CRT monitor hooked up to card PCI-e1, but my Device Manager is showing two monitors: a Default monitor and a Plug and Play monitor. Since I always install my monitor drivers to the Plug and Play monitor in single-card format, I decided to do the same in SLI. The drivers installed OK and the Plug and Play monitor updated and now shows the Viewsonic model correctly. But, I still show the Default monitor in Device Manager as well as the Viewsonic. Is this normal? I deleted the Default monitor, rebooted and it just reappeared. Same thing for the Viewsonic.

I believe that is normal for SLI configurations. Even with my ATI dual-output card I had two monitors showing up in the device manager (regular and "Secondary").

Thanks for the reply, now I have another question concerning refresh. I have previously used the RefreshForce program when I had a single video card to get out of 60Hz hell, but it doesn't seem to be working due to the double monitors showing up. I tried setting refresh within the display properites but it didn't hold the settings. Any ideas or help is appreciated.

Nevermind...I finally figured it out and all is working OK.
