My problem is that my 6990 is that the screen randomly goes black with no warning. I could either be browsing the internet or playing a game and it goes black. I don't know if it is a driver problem or if I need to replace the card. I want some help for troubleshooting the problem to see whatever it would be. Anything would be apprecciated.:)

Why is crossfire disabled if you have two of them?

That screen going seemingly randomly black means that your graphics card driver is constantly resetting the card. Tell me one more thing - are the GPU fans spinning at 100% the entire time? Is the card also at 100% load the entire time even when idle?
