So, I initially had trouble enabling surround, as one of my monitors doesnt have DVI, but has HDMI, and due to a bug in the monitor's EDID, I have been using a DVI/VGA adapter for some time, as it looks better than the HDMI. With the VGA Adapter it wouldnt allow me to activate surround, but once i went via HDMI, it worked, sorta. As soon as I activated it, the screens flashed as expected, but they never stopped. Now, every 30 seconds or so my screens flash the image, then go back to black. I tried both the current 258 driver and the beta 260 one. Any ideas what could be causing this? I'm going to have to uninstall the drivers in safe mode to get my pc workable again (posting on my spare PC)

Only thing I can think of, is I overclocked my GTX 460s, so I'm going to then that off for now.

Interestingly, the first time I did it the 2 outer monitors were intermittently showing the desktop, but the center was never given a signal, and the second time with the 260 drivers, only the center and right monitor got a signal, with the left monitor blank the whole time. My left monitor is hooked up to the second 460.
