How are the monitors connected? Are you using an active displayport adapter or a passive adapter?

You may need an active adapter. From what I understand when using more than 2 displays(aka eyefinity) an active adapter is required.

For 3 monitors you'll need 1 for 4 monitors you need 2(the other 2 monitors will have to use the hdmi and dvi port). The MSI 7950 only has 2 mini displayports so why would you need 4 adapters?
I made a big mistake. The video card I bought was the MSI R7970 and not the MSI 7950. I`m so sorry bignastyid. For the MSI R7970 card will I need 04 active adapters for the 04 monitors operating simultaneously (using the 4 mini displayports)? Sorry again for my mistake.

No problem it happens. There are 4 different r7970's from MSI but im going to assume you have the one with 4 displayports and 2 dvi ports. If thats the case as long as you are running 1080p(or lower) monitors then you should be fine using 2 active adapters and the 2 dvi ports for 4 monitors.
