    Today i updatet my Bios from rev 00 to rev 01 and reinstalled windows 7 X64
    after installing all the drivers i went into device manager and notised that it dident list the two m260Gtx cards that i have in the m17x.

    I tried to run Pc Wizard 2009 to see if the video cards whoud be listed, that was whit out luck.

    I disabled Hybrid setings in bios also whit out luck.
    But when i disable the integrated video card in the bios then the two m260gtx cards poped up in device manager.

    Need help to solve this problem.
