    Eyefinity setup

    Hi Guys,

    Just recieved my new machine, loving it! However when connecting the 3 monitors it will only allow me to have 2 on at any time. Currently connected 1 into DVI and 2 via mini dislayport to DVI as suggested by Lee.

    Any ideas how to get these working?

    Cheers,

    So, this is how you have it setup right?

    mDP - DVI
    mDP - DVI
    DVI - DVI

    In the CCC panel, does it detect all three monitors? If so, try to enable it?

    Indeed its

    mDP - DVI
    mDP - DVI
    DVI - DVI

    however whilst windows is seeing them if I try to enable the third it always comes back with unable to save display settings.

    CCC will only show 3 when I have 2 disabled (ie will allow me to enable 1 and then doesnt see the third)
