O.k. I have a Dell 3008 (Display Port) and two Dell 2011 (both DVI-D) on both sides in portrait. All is fine on that setup but when I add a fourth Gateway 20" to the HDMI I cannot get it to display with the other three. I am using the Gateway on top of the 3008 to monitor graphics cards and system performance while I game on the other three.

If I extend the desktop to it it turns one of the Dell 21" off and the Gateway on. Windows sees it in the display properties but I cannot extend to all four or even arrange them the way I want.

Anybody got any ideas?

I am guessing a single card can only output to 3 monitors unless you have the 6 DP Eyeinfinity edition.

Are any other outputs active on the X-fired card that I have?

O.k. I got everything working as I disabled crossfire and now I can display across all four until I pick up a 6970 I guess which will support all four outputs on one card.
