GTX 570 properties under OSX 10.7.3

Hi,
I've now a 570 (evga hd, 2.5 gb) implemented in my MP 4.1 (newest drivers).
It gives a satisfactory speed under resolve BUT the systemprofiler doesn't show anything for pci-bus! Instead an errormessage occours :(
Is that the price for mounting a pc-card under OSX?
I wonder if anyone has mounted a pc-card in MP and has a healthier system?
Do I miss something?

Error appears: About this mac / more infos / pci cards
Normaly there are all pci devices listed (including grafic cards), if drivers installed etc etc
With mounting the 570 it says something like 'an error occours' and nothing else is listed.
But everything seems to run well.
Only the message...

This is due to the self-init function of the drivers.
Using ATY_Init in other oS versions gives same bug.
Not sure why, just how it is. Only EFI inited cards show up properly here.
Most of the self-inited cards are running at PCIE 1.0 Spec of 2.5 GT/s but it is hard to verify due to "Error" in PCI cards section.
Use CUDA-Z and your Single Precision number should be 1100-1300 for a 570 and your device to device pinned will be around 2900. EFI inited cards will show 5600-5900 for device to device pinned.

hi david
i thought the GT/s number is listed in the graphic card tab (not PCI card)
i can see that my 470 are listed @ 5GT/s in system proprieties graphic card tab .. (the PCI tab on my system is not working at all because i have the cubix)
