Title: Windows Multiple GPU Post by: Jarredm on June 14, 2011, 06:57:17 PM So I am having trouble getting two GPUs running in windows. I am wondering if there is a secret! ;)
I have a 6870 that is installed and running with poclbm with guiminer. I also have a 4870 card in the board's second x16 slot. The device manager see the card and correctly identifies it. However, when I run poclbm in command line mode I only see [0-0] Barts as well as the CPU. I have also noticed that there is no mention of the 4870 card in CCC. I believe that I'm missing something basic since this is my first attempt at multiple GPUs on a mobo.

Now all those dongles on the GPUs in the pictures here make sense! I have seen pictures of a jumper wire between two pins on a DB15 VGA connector/adapter. I assume that this takes care of the presence detection for the card? Can someone fill me in on what pins to jump?
