I Built our first miner with some Computer with Parts my Brother Ordered like 2 weeks ago
anyway he ordered 2 5850's like i told him
Gigabyte, I currently have 2 crossfire cables connected to each other, i mean, the ones that come with Each Computer, they are currently on, not sure if im supposed to put one or put both??
anyway
the first Video card works fine, getting 270+ mhashes NOT overclocked or anything, everything is base
anyway, the second card is giving a Unusual Behavior in OPEN CL
i have cata drivers 11.4
i also have a second monitor hooked up to the second card just in case
so what would be the problem
also its only seeming to read only 1 vid card

Your phrasing is very confusing. You have 2 5850s, does windows(?) detect them both or only 1? If it detects them both what do you mean "unusual behavior in openCL"?
As far as mining goes you don't need the crossfire cable btw.

mine does this too when i'm not mining...no idea why Do yourself a favour, download MSI Afterburner and use that to set the clock/fan settings. Kill the CCC.exe process or your miner will crash often.

Use MSI Afterburner and keep an eye on the temps. HWMonitor is good to monitor temps too. What clock are the cards set at? What temp are they running at?

the problem i had last night was that the Computer would RESTART whlie Mining for 5 to 15 minutes
the issue maybe due to a single or a combination of following: a) too much overclocking b) overheating c) not enough power
