My monitor doesn't go black anymore, I RMA my Sapphire adapter (update Bios doesn't work for me).
I have a 5850, sapphire active adapter

yes i think that too but sapphiretech from a ticket told me to RMA the adapter, my retailer told me to RMA, i do everything flashing Bios didn't work,New driver(10.1 beta) didn't work,registry fix didn't work,i try to change monitor didn't work,i try to change usb power for the adapter didn't work ...

i try registry fix but didn't work.
I call my retailer for RMA my adapter.

just checked bios update but still not working

i try this method but didn't help me.

i flash my 5850 with this bios http://www.techpowerup.com/vgabios/65298/ATI.HD5850.1024.091211.html
didn't help continue to blinking every few second
i try eyefinity with new bios didn't help.

thread link with working link to (beta) driver: http://www.rage3d.com/board/showthread.php?t=33958073

I use that Beta driver linked.
I haven't flashed(I have a 5850) beacause i don't want to void warranty, tomorrow i send my sapphire adapter( product from bizlink) to RMA to get an other one.

I try 10.1 Beta driver but problem is still here

This is my adapter from sapphire.
I bought it on 20 dec in italy.

Thank you very much will try that later tonight.

You're welcome :)

Got it flashed thanks. Will update if I experience my monitors flashing. So far so good.

What is it with this bios that is different from the others. Why was it suggested to flash bios anyway. I know ...

Yes, my accell DP>DVI adapter with FW:034 is working just fine at a resolution of 1920X1080. All my flickering problems disappeared with the flashing of the bios, nothing else was needed to fix my problem.

Have you got a 5870 or a 5850?
What bios did you use?

Yes i tell them.

Sapphire respond to my ticket
They ask me to get a replacement.

This is a video of my problem http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=gPrl_P4n0zU

Sorry i simple read wrong on the release note.

This adapters are selling, i think sapphire simple doesn't test with many monitors.
Amd/ati knows about this problema in release note of 9.12 driver they write about this problem, i hope with new driver they fix it.
This is a image of adapters box

no i buy it separately

i have a ati 5850 and 3 acer v243HQ, two connect with DVI and the other with a sapphire eyefinity DP to DVI adapter my monitor gose black every 10 seconds
