Hello,
I recently purchased a Pentium G2130 along with a Z77 Extreme3 motherboard. As the motherboard is capable of Crossfire I thought I could just put my Sapphire HD 6950 into a PCIe port, and be all ready to work. Unfortunately, it did not work out this way.... The motherboard does not detect the card in BIOS or Windows 7. Stranger still, it works fine in my old AMD configuration.

Only one card, the 6950, the board itself is capable of Crossfire so I assumed one card would be fine. Under the BIOS the PCIE slot is currently the premier display option. The card doesnt show up in the BIOS either.
