Sorry About that message avout I wasa half asleep writing it and incredibly tired.

No there not powered , funny you should say that I got the 4 - 16 x - 16x Non powered risers and then I have 2- 1x - 16x POWERED risers.. I plug these in and they work, but even when I plug the last video car in NON powere it should work? but why doesnt it?

Weird thing is why were they all working beofre with non powered risers

No, but why would you think you could, the crossfire bridges go nowhere near the motherboard or power supply.

Follow the implied advice and get some powered risers (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=9&pub=5575000824&toolid=10001&campid=5337427080&customid=&icep_uq=pci+16+powered+riser&icep_sellerId=&icep_ex_kw=&icep_sortBy=12&icep_catId=&icep_minPrice=&icep_maxPrice=&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229466&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg) and if you need them, some molex splitters (http://rover.ebay.com/rover/1/711-53200-19255-0/1?icep_ff3=9&pub=5575000824&toolid=10001&campid=5337427080&customid=&icep_uq=molex+splitters&icep_sellerId=&icep_ex_kw=&icep_sortBy=12&icep_catId=&icep_minPrice=&icep_maxPrice=&ipn=psmain&icep_vectorid=229466&kwid=902099&mtid=824&kw=lg), but be sensible with how you use them.

Well I have some powered 1x-16x And tried these ... funny you should say that i did not even need to do this before they all worked fine 3 cards... now all of a sudden they dont? wtf???? OK so I thought I have 2 powered risers why not plus 2 powered risers in and only 1 un powered riser.... STILLL only 1 card is detected... ALl the ccards power up but [windows home edition] only detectes only 1, i dont it got to do with home edition because why was it working before anyway i am now putting on ultimate 64xbit

I was never told you need to put powered risers on EEVERYCARD.. infact i was told 3 card should be ok and they were, un till yesterday . so i decided to put 1 / 2 power risers I have in, SILL nothing, so I put 2 STILLL WTFFFFF

I feel like bashing my miner honestly im so angry I wasted 1 and a half days  so har

No, you just need to use powered risers. If you are running out of Molex connectors then its is possible that your PSU i snot big enough as well.
