I got my VisionTek Radeon HD3870 today, so excited to play with it. Ok so I uninstall ATI drivers, went into safe mode removed all ATI files with driver cleaner then shut down the system to install my new card. Installation went smooth but I noticed that instead of showing me two display adapters at startup one of them was only a "PCI device"?

I installed Catalyst 7.12 and I still see the same problem in the device manager .

Device manager

I'm supposed to get 2 Radeon 3870 in display adapters right?

Should I RMA the card?

Would you people stop saying RMA this and RMA that. An estimated 95% of the problems a user has is because the end user messed up in some fashion. Sorry to be grumpy at christmas, good luck with the card. :)
