    odd, it sees the 4850s just fine, they are in my hardware list and running like a champ. Pulling some great vantage and 3dmark06 numbers.

    Hmmm.. wonder if thats from the 10.2 drivers I installed last night. I cant' confirm when this happened though. I did the win 7 install like a week ago, and never bothered to check what was still unresolved devices.

    how do you know pci bux xfire 4850s is what it is?
