I had the exact same issue as Kondor, and found the Accell adapter to work where the Dell(Bizlink) adapter did not. Setup is two 5870's, Windows 7 x 64 and three Acer H213H monitors. |

McKie, how did you do your uninstall? I did it by actually running the 9.11 setup that I downloaded. After the files extract, the second window to pop up is asking to install or uninstall. You should uninstall from that. I would probably try what someone suggested earlier in this thread and not inst... |

uninstall all your Catalyst software and display drivers. Reinstall the 9.11 stuff and that should fix it. |

Also, if you can get Hydravision to be able to be set so that when you open a window (say IE in the middle monitor) that it would "snap" to the borders of the preset Hydragrid without first expanding across all three then having to go to the top bar and clicking "Attach to Grid". If it already does ... |

[quote]I think we all just want to hear that ATI is: Just so you are aware, I am the Product Manager for the HD 5800 Series. Dave, can you confirm if there is specific testing for DisplayPort to DVI adaptors going on over at ATI? I ask b/c while I was working with the Bizlink adapter (never got it ... |

I think Kondor has one ordered, and he has a vast supply of various monitors to try it with. he should be able to give some more feedback on that. Trust me, I wasn't expecting it to work. I was all ready to buy a Dell DP monitor, and I just decided to be patient and wait for it to get here first and... |

I think I would have rather just bought a DP native monitor and cable then attempt a bios flash on a brand new card |

I set this up Monday morning. and it has done it 3 separate times. so about once a day. it starts as what looks to be just interference th... |

I have three Acer H213H 21.5" monitors. I tried the Bizlink adapter on all three with the USB plugged everywhere excpet in my butt and they all did that flickering. I have the Acell plugged in my far left monitor closest to my tower and it is working great. Tried Aion and WoW on it and both ran with... |

got the Acell adapter in today that I ordered from Amazon (looks exactly like the Dell version) and it has worked flawlessly since about 5 pm cst. I can't say for sure, but it appears that most of the problems are with the Bizlink adapter. Just to note, I have the USB plugged into a wall adapter and... |

Bad news. I googled Accell and Bizlink and it turns out they're the same company: http://www.accellcables.com/press/press_01_03.html I should have known it damnit! Oh well, maybe just a different unit will make the difference. I am having my rep at Dell check to see if I can still get my money back... |

I wonder: Has anyone tried a different adapter than the Dell/Bizlink? Seems like we all ordered it based on the initial recommendation made by some dude here. Is it possible (even probable) that simply going with a different adapter would solve all our problems? I went ahead and ordered the one fro... |

I have the same adaptor and have been struggling with the same issue. I spoke with a Tech Rep at ATI today and he even said that he had fielded a few calls concerning it. He suggested switching it to all the monitors on the eyefinity to see if it does it and switching through multiple cables (all of... |
