Hi everyone,

I have a XFX 7800 (dual mini dp, hdmi, dual dvi) and want to connect to 3 LG's 47" with only hdmi.
I tryed everything I could but the third monitor won't connect, so if anyone could help...
What I did:

I bought 3 hdmi 6ft cables, 2 hdmi/dvi adapters and tryed to plug all in, but only 2 tv's shows up. I put on hdmi and both dvi's. Nothing. Only two.

I read a lot and saw that the GPU doesn't work like that, and I'll need some active adapter to do the job. Im my city, I coudn't find one, just found a little white box with a mini dp and 3 differents sources. Course it doesn't work because the box was not active.

Well, after 5 hours trying, I bought one active display adapter (dvi x mini dp) but it has the normal dp port, not mini dp. I attached it to my lil white box (tha have the small dp plug and put the box on the GPU. The other side has a dvi/hdmi adapter tha goes to TV.

In fact, the windows reconized 3 displays, but catalyst don't.

I tryed all and nothing, so I'm calling for help.

Tks in advance.

Chris

Guys, SOLVED!! I changed the signal cables order, letting the hdmi on right, dvi on center and minidp on left and it works! Sometimes the hdmi was still blinking but I replace the cord and the problem was solved. Looks like the center screen has so much work than others and the hdmi cable was not hanging the job. After put him at right side, he start to work but still blinks, so I change the cord and BINGO!

Hope it help more people.
