Hi Guys,

I installed the 12.1 driver which greatly improved the performance .. but I can not turn over the way "Eyefinity".
Someone is with this problem too, or have any solutions? I tried the preview driver 12.2 and worse.

My Computer:
X6 1090T (4GHz) 2xR6970 Lighting - 3x Samsung Syncmaster RZ2233 co mdois Mini-Dp apple adapters(120hz) for DVI-D (Adapters and always used these monitors are always identified)

Please help me!

Hello.

Could you please be more clear about the issue you are experiencing?

but I can not turn over the way "Eyefinity".
^^ does not make much sense.

Thank you.

Please tell us more about the problem you are having. Your description is too vague/incomplete.

This. I'd hazard a guess that the OP's miniDP adapter don't work. I have one of those Apple miniDP->DVI unpowered adapters and I couldn't get it to work on my system.

Im having issues which (may or may not be related to the OPs issues.) Win 7(64) with an xfx 5870 eyefinity 6. I had quite the issues getting this card to run 6 projectors the last year but finally managed to get it working with CCC 11.~6?? ish. Just installed 12.3 which then cooked my settings. when I go to reapply eyefinity mode the projectors loose signal and just sit there till i restart at which point it defaults back to normal extended desktop mode....

Is this an issue anyone else has had? suggestions??? when I installed I uninstalled, rebooted, and installed, rebooted and then tried it...

thanks

I had all sorts of hell with 12.2 until I ran DriverSweeper, uninstalled the .NET4 framework and re-installed, then re-installed 12.2 drivers. It was a pain in the butt.

I run 12.2 with out issue, and I was running 12.1 previous. I have recently faced a DP failure on my card so I am no longer running eyefinity, btu it worked flawlessly until then. The card is about to be replaced with a new MSI 7970 Lightning so I will RMA it after, and then sell it, that way im not down any length of time.

I've had to stay on 12.1 because both the 12.2 preview and release versions caused BSoDs during my PC's normal operation. Afterwards, my Eyefinity display group would be disabled and all monitors would mirror my primary monitor.

I've had BSoDs in the past when updating my AMD drivers. But, they almost always occurred as part of the driver install if I neglected to use Driver Sweeper, not after the install had appeared to be successful as was the case with 12.2.

My normal process for updating AMD drivers goes like this:

1. Uninstall all Catalyst Control Center related files using Windows 7 Programs and Features from the Control Panel
2. Uninstall display device drivers from Device Manager
3. Reboot Windows in safe mode
4. Run Driver Sweeper to remove any remaining AMD files
5. Reboot
6. Install new drivers
7. Reboot
8. Configure Eyefinity/Catalyst Control Panel settings

Following these steps, the 12.2 drivers appeared to install correctly and I was able to configure my Eyefinity display group and game at 6048x1080 but I later starting having BSoDs a couple of hours apart. Reverting to 12.1 appears to have resolved the issue for me, at least for now.

Hey phemassa, what exactly happens when you try to enable Eyefinity? Does the Catalyst Control Center allow you to run Eyefinity on your desktop but not in games or can you not run Eyefinity at all?
