Title: Problems with GUIminer with two 5xxx graphics cards Post by: bartonn on May 09, 2011, 10:56:48 PM I am trying to run a 5830 and a 5850 on a single computer. after installing the latest drivers, GUIminer only recognizes 1 card named "Cypress". i have tried different drivers, but i cannot get guiminer to work on both of my cards.
any advice please? Title: Re: Problems with GUIminer with two 5xxx graphics cards Post by: rezin777 on May 09, 2011, 10:58:08 PM Are you using a dummy plug?

EDIT: looked it up. do i need this to run a second GPU?

Or you could plug your monitor in one card, start mining, switch the monitor to the other card, and start mining on that one.

GPU-Z and MSI afterburner both detect 2 cards, but Catalyst control center only detects 1.
is there anything else i could try? EDIT: CCC detects the second display adapter, but lists it as "Disabled". is there a way to enable it?
