I wen't on a limb and flashed my card with the modified flashrom and the unlocked GTO2 bios for sapphire cards, but it didn't work, so i flashed my the backup of my original bios back on.
The only thing i got was this nasty little problem with my X800GTO showing up, and another X800GTO Secondary showing up too in display driver.

I disabled the secondary, because my comp was running AWOL with both of them on, it didn't know which on to use.
The difference i can see is that the first has function 0 and the secondary has function 1. Is there a way i get my card back to not having a split personality?

That's exactly how it's supposed to be shown in Device Manager.

Oh really? I can't recall if i looked there before the flash, but maybe the flash did screw up which one of them to use on my monitor i guess, but it seems under control with the secondary disabled.

That's completely normal..

ATI has been this way for a long time, my 9800pro even does it..

That secondary device is there so that it can act as two video cards. When you connect two displays, you can have something different on the second display.

BTW, with Catalyst 5.10 I have been having problems with the display when it is first detected. Either restarting Windows or reinstalling the driver fixes it, but I don't remember whether just restarting works or not.
