Hello and Help

[joolzg]

I newbie here, Hello, and having a problem.

I have 2 machines, and 3 cards, 1 6990 and 2 5970. Im hoping to get aother 5970 next week.

Problem is that on my new mothboard i am trying to get 2 cards working, I cant.

I can get either 5970 or the 6990 to work but the other card is not seen.

Now ive seen talk of dummy connectors, so my question is do i need a monitor or dummy connector on the 2nd card?

Operating system?

Windows, no dummy, no crossfire, all PCE-E power connected, use Catalyst 12.11beta, use GUIminer and you should see 2 cards.
