Multiple VGA adapters

I have two questions if someone could offer any assistance.

1: I just ran the uninstall on my Nvidia card (which used to show as GPU #0000 below) but I noticed I have two duplicate(?) VGA / Intel(?) adapters. Should this be cause for concern (I'll explain in question 2) and should I try to uninstall one, or is this normal?

DDU Version:15.7.5.5
GPU # 0001 Detected : Standard VGA Graphics Adapter
GPU DeviceId : pci\cc_0300
Detected Driver(s) Version(s) : 6.1.7600.16385
INF : display.inf
INF Section : vga
--------------
GPU # 0002 Detected : AMD Radeon R9 200 / HD 7900 Series
GPU DeviceId : pci\ven_1002&dev_6798
Detected Driver(s) Version(s) : 15.300.1025.0
INF : oem67.inf
INF Section : ati2mtag_R575
--------------
GPU # 0003 Detected : Standard VGA Graphics Adapter
GPU DeviceId : pci\cc_0300
Detected Driver(s) Version(s) : 6.1.7600.16385
INF : display.inf
INF Section : vga

2: I've been intermittently having crashing problems. About 1 out of 5 times, either it was crashing at start-up during the "logo" screen (when you press F2/F8 for boot options, BIOS options, etc) or it would crash at the desktop where icons in the lower right toolbar wouldn't load and if you hover over the toolbar, it would showing the "loading" cursor and then freeze shortly after. This is not related in any way to this program and is not a result of it, I'm just curious if there was anyone here who would think that those issues are over with now that I did this. As well as using this tool to remove unused graphics drivers, I also disabled multiple anti-virus software which seemed to have conflicted with each other. Or is there any way to check my registry or my hardware to make sure it's not malfunctioning?

Yes you can run it. DDU was made for this type of "False" multicard problem.
After running DDU, it should be back to normal. If not, it is possible you may have to select the Intel cleaner too after the nVidia one or If you had an AMD card in the past, you could do an AMD run too.
