Re: 7970 Lightning 3 Displayport Nightmare
ISSUE IS FIXED . It turned out to be the drivers. I really should have reinstalled the drivers from the get go . Let this be a lesson people! I thought about doing it a million times, but it didn't seem logical why only 1 monitor wouldn't work. So something seems to happen later on in the boot ...

Re: 7970 Lightning 3 Displayport Nightmare
Got the adapter. I was pretty sure that it wasn't going to work but AMD support seemed pretty confident. It didn't. So when I told them, I got this in response:

Re: 7970 Lightning 3 Displayport Nightmare
The saga continues lol. My email was down a few days so I thought AMD support had written me off. They have been actively helping me now and a solution might be in sight.
AMD Global Support: Thankfully for our FirePro and Radeon products, only one connection out of 3 needs to be active. The card ...

Re: 7970 Lightning 3 Displayport Nightmare
Tested the cables and issue still exists. I really thought Eyefinity would have been more fleshed out at this stage of the game. Pretty dissapointing really. Well at least now I can concentrate on the xfire micro-stuttering

Re: 7970 Lightning 3 Displayport Nightmare
I've decided to try these http://www.accellcables.com/B143B.html They are supposedly VESA compliant. Tiger Direct has them on sale.
Should get them this week and I'll post my findings.
I've also opened a support ticket with AMD for the heck of it.
It could be worse. I can still ...

Re: 7970 Lightning 3 Displayport Nightmare
Called MSI support, talked to Greg, and informed him updating the MB bios did not fix the issue. His next troubleshooting tip was to have me try each card only 1 at a time, in each slot. Result? Same exact issue with each card in either slot. So I think that rules out the MB. When I told him the ...

Re: 7970 Lightning 3 Displayport Nightmare
This might be a stretch, but it could be the cables.

I was starting to think this myself. That thread doesn't talk about the same exact issue but maybe it's related? When I look up the cables they talk about, there are conflicting reviews. And now this pin #20 thing? All I know is, after ...

Re: 7970 Lightning 3 Displayport Nightmare
Strange.... did you contact MSI customer support and ask them ?
Yes. They were the ones who told me to update the MB bios which I did. I am calling them again tomorrow to let them know bios update did not help and see what they say. They did confirm that this setup should work, which I knew but ...

Re: 7970 Lightning 3 Displayport Nightmare
Sorry about the confusion. It's actually the dvi output with a dvi/hdmi adaptor.
