3x Monitors + 2x Video Cards

Hi everyone,

Really appreciate your time for reading this. I'll explain the situation.

1) I have three monitors (different brands, but are DVI and HDMI capable)
2) I only have DVI cables and HDMI cables (i cannot find any displayport adapters lying around)
3) I have two Radeon 2GB 6950's in CrossFire (unfortunately only the main video card has shader unlocked, the 2nd 6950 is newer PowerColor 6950 and I havent figured out how to perform a stable unlock yet)
4) Windows 7 (x64) with Catalyst 12.4

Obviously the first two monitors plugged in via DVI work fine. its just when I plug in the third via DVI or HDMI into Video Card #2 do I not get any detection. Strangely I tried restarting, uninstalling drivers.. and only after uninstalling my drivers prior to the restart can I get all three displays working in tandem. After a driverless restart im back to zero monitors again (makes sense), run driver sweeper, then install the drivers again, still only two monitors but the third flickers on and off momentarily during the driver install, when its done: two monitors only. Restart, and still to two monitors.

I probably just don't know what im doing and thats why im here for advice!

Please and thank you!!
