Don't know if it's because of 3 monitors but have other problem after installing Win7

So as I said my 5770 works fine with Windows XP as long as I use 2 monitors in any kind of configuration. CCC can see 3rd monitor connected but I can't add it as 3rd one working...

so I decided to updgrade to Win7

I tried Ultimate x32 and x64 and during instalation everything works fine, restarting updating etc is fine and finally Windows7 starts and when I downsload newest CCC restart PC begining screen (that flag) just stops after few second and doesnt do anything at all...

and at this point I can't start this Win7 even after restarting, using recomennded Windows repair toll etc...
and I have to reinstall Win7 and the same problem accurs again...

I did it 4 times and have no idea what to do?

Anyone had something similar? What can I do? it,s because of CCC driver or something else?

Would really apreciate some kind of help...

but when I use 2 monitors and 1 on them conencted to DisplayPort by adapter I have everything works under Windows XP

so why should adapter change anything if this one works? or maybe there is a difference under WIn7 or smth?

not going to spend next 200$ to get to it Poland just to see that it,s next bull,,,t

If I only knew how it,s gonna be I would just buy new PC with 2 PCIe and 2 grafic cards in crossfire or whatever... :(

FAIL = 10.1 Hot fix has brought back the screwed up res on 3rd monitor on start up.

3rd monitor starts only showing a 800x600 portion in the middle of the screen.
In the display properties it shows that it is set to 1650x1050.

I have to move the res sider down from 1650x1050and apply it.
Then move the sider back to 1650x1050 and apply it again.

I have to do this each boot 80% of the time.

Correct me people if I'm wrong, but Eyefinity is not supported in XP, correct? I'm not sure XP sees the third monitor on a single graphics card, thus causing your problem. Just a guess anyway.

eyefinity does not work with XP but I was told that extended pulpit could work...

My CCC sees 3 monitors (2 active and 1 disabled) but there is no option to make them 3 work together, I can jast switch them between those 3 but still only 2 working...

it looks like this:


would love a way to make this work with XP :)

maybe if i will manage to install Win7 it will work, we'll see...

It seems that this is the active DP to VGA to buy: http://www.newegg.com/Product/Product.aspx?Item=N82E16812270279

And in ATI you have a new list of ATI Eyefinity Validated Dongles : http://support.amd.com/us/eyefinity/Pages/eyefinity-dongles.aspx
