Hey Guys, Just found this forum on google and joined.
I bought some new gaming stuff yesterday and I'm going to run eyefinity =)
Could anyone help me here? I'll be very greatful

So I bought 3 Screens, 1x HDMI 1X DVI 1XVGA
My GPU is 7970 GHz 3gb Vapor-X

I bought a adapter from Displayport to DVI and the store told me it were active. (Not sure if lying or not.)

My Screen setup is like this;
1St Screen DVI (In DVI to Displayport)
2nd Screen HDMI (Directly Connected to GPU)
3rd Screen VGA (Uses a Converter from DVI To VGA)

And Whenever I connect them all I can find all 3 Screens but I can only use 2 According to "Catalyst".

Could anyone help me identify the problem? Been googling for around 12 hours now, Do you guys think the Displayport is the problem here? That the guy in the store lied to me? If so I appricate fast reply so I can order a new a.s.a.p! :)

Thanks for your time guys!

*Sorry if wrong Section but I just joined so not sure where to put it*

so you have an Active DVi->VGA adapter or just a passive one ?
If it's passive, does is it connected on the DVI-I and not on the DVI-D ?

But it certainly is easier using DVI-DVI and Displayport->VGA adapter.


oh btw: :welcome
