Post subject:  problem with my 3 screen setup

i`ve got a problem but i am also new in the eyefinity world.

so here is my setup before i will tell you a little story about my problem :)

3 LG E2350E-PN screens
1 asus ATI EAH 5870 graphicscard
intel icore7 920
6GB memory (1666mhz)

and now my problem story

i wanted to use these 3 screen for gaming and for my work.
but i got a problem with my monitor that is connected to my active displayport adapter (bizlink)
the screen is blinking like crazy.
i`ve read the faq about some trouble shooting and the blinking of the screen.
i tried it al older drivers and also made me a y-usb cable.
But what i found out is when i uninstalled the display drivers and used the driver sweeper.
Rebooted the computer and the screen on the display port works fine until i install the original graphicscard drivers and the screen on the display port adapter begins to blink again.

so now i realy do not know what to do and i am hoping that you guys and girl (the experts) can tell me what i can do more.

thanks

Well, you could trying a buying an IPAD or IPhone charger as those carry more Voltage and more amps. But honestly i'd just go ahead and buy a sinle-lnk active dvi adapter. They can be had for $30 on newegg.

ok that is also an option i just ordered today hahahaha
this one : Club 3D Adapter Mini-DisplayPort op DVI-D (18+1)

but i also talked to the shop were i bought the graphicscard and they tolded me that there could be a defect in the displayport.
so i`ll will send the graphicscard back to the shop and they send me a replacement card a asus ati readeon 6950 card.
this card should do the trick or not? :twisted:

It all depends on where the problem lies. Well it says it's an active adapter, we'll see.
