Can't get AMD Dual Graphics working; onboard graphics disappear from device manager when discrete card added.

So I just got a Radeon HD 6570 with the intent of doing the AMD Dual Graphics thing with that and an A8-5600K CPU. However, after plugging it into the motherboard, only the discrete card shows up in the device manager and Catalyst Control Center, with the onboard one now missing and no option in CCC for CrossFire.

Now, the only lead I've been able to come up with involves setting Init Display First in the BIOS to 'Onboard', which is a problem as Init Display First seems to be missing (Gigabyte F2A85XM-D3H BIOS Date: 10/05/12 13:07:27 Ver: 04.06.05 (DualBIOS)).

So the question is why don't I see two display devices, where's the Dual Graphics option in CCC, am I on the right track with Init Display First and why is that option missing from the BIOS?

Nevermind, think I fixed it. Rather than Init Display First, my BIOS had an option of a different name that allowed me to force integrated graphics. Device manager now properly shows two display adapters and I was able to enable Dual Graphics in CCC.
