OS: Windows XP Pro/SP2
Card: Sapphire x1650 256mb
Mobo: Abit BD7II
CPU: Pentium 4 2.26
Got a BSOD the other day, and when I rebooted, was getting a black screen after the windows logo for 30 seconds or so, and then windows would start in 640x480 w/ 4-bit color. I did a clean reinstall of windows, and now Device Manager shows 8 "Video Controller (VGA Compatible)" entries under "Other devices." If I uninstall any of them, they are re-detected upon reboot or scanning for new hardware. In Properties dialog for each entry, locations are listed as "PCI bus 1, device 0, function 0" through "PCI bus 1, device 0, function 7".
I'm totally lost. The display functions find with the standard VGA drivers, but any time I try to install any drivers for the card (ATI/Omega, various versions) I have all sorts of problems. The many duplicate Video Controller entries would seem to be the primary symptom here. I have not been able to find any other reports of a similar problem, and I'm out of troubleshooting ideas.
Help!
Thanks,
-Matt
