I have a VisionTek Radeon HD 7970.
I am trying to connect 3 displays to my video card. I have the following outputs on my card
2x Mini displayport
1x HDMI
1x Dual DVI
I have currently have one monitor connected via dual dvi and another connected via HDMI
The third display I am trying to connect is a tv that only accepts HDMI connections. To connect the third device, I purchased this active Mini dp to hdmi adapter.

However, It is not working. When the tv is connected through the adapter, I do not see anything on the tv, nor do I see the display detected in catalyst. I have tried hooking up the tv directly to the hdmi port and it works. I have also tried hooking up the other monitor, which is currently connected via HDMI, to the adapter and it DIDN'T work.
Is the adapter the problem? I researched hooking up 3 displays to one card, and it seemed like as long as the mini dp to HDMI adapter was ACTIVE, it would work. Other reviewers on Amazon also mentioned that the adapter worked for them
Is there a setting that needs to be enabled in software somewhere for the card to use the mini dp connection?
Maybe I should just use an active Mini dp to dvi adapter, and then use a dvi to hdmi cable?
Thank you
