Hi All -

Currently I have two Sapphire Toxic HD6950s running in Crossfire. In a single card I have two DVI's direct in, and an active mini-display to DVI adapter for the third monitor. When I try to duplicate the third display in CCC it never works and only allows me to have two on at a time. What am I doing wrong? I'm pulling my hair out! Please help!

To be very clear, are all of the connections coming to the displays from a single HD 6950? I think that's what you're describing and that IS necessary to make it work..

A few things come to mind re: the DP connected display:

1. Is the DP active adapter a Single-Link or Dual-Link? I found I could never get a single link active adapter to work.
2. Does the DP active adapter have a USB power plug? If not, you likely need to spend a bit more on one that does and also make sure it's a Dual-Link Adapter.
3. If your adapter DOES have a USB power connection, have you tried recycling the power by unplugging and then plugging it back in? In most cases where adapters ARE working, this remedies the loss of signal sync.
