Anyone else having difficulty with riser cards on that board?  I have all sorts of problems, not being recognized by the bios, not being recognized by windows intermittent crashing when detected. Any suggestions?

Thanks!

Good idea ill double check. It's strange because I have the same problems on two of the same board with 2 brands of risers

after doing alittle research I found the third pcie slot to be a mini-PCI according to the board specifics.  is this why I am having these issues.  I have gotten all 3 working before with 3 7950s, the specs also state the board supports "quad crossfirex".  Would running the 2 cards from the board and the 3rd from a x1 to x16 powered riser be recommended?

**EDIT  is a mini-pci a x1 slot?  It sure looks like it should support 3 x16 without difficulty.

I was able to plug the cards in there no problem.  Mini Pci and pciex1 are different, but that is a pcie x1 slot.
