Put my new rig together just yesterday. :) I've never done so before, as if my noobishness wasn't apparent.
The thing is, whenever I went into Windows I kept getting that Install Hardware Wizard crap...twice. If I tried clicking it, the description for the item is "Unknown Device".
I finally went into the hardware management and disabled both items, but I fear I may be missing something.

Here's what it looks like in the Hardware Management:

If I right click either item, and go into Properties, this is what it shows:

So it apparently has to do with my X850 XTPE, but how do I fix it?

Is it perhaps a temperature sensor or some extra part of the card?

that is most likely your VIVO chip.. install the drivers for the VIVO, and it should go away... the same thing happened to me with my ti4600.... install the VIVO drivers!

Download link? I couldn't find it on Google.

I second the motion that the "unknown devices" you disabled are VIVO related.

VIVO drivers are called "WDM" something on the Catalyst download page.
