kingdingeling Posted January 18, 2007 Posted January 18, 2007 keep them out until you have the drivers installed, then add the second one. at least thats how SLI works Share this post Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RADEON Posted January 19, 2007 Posted January 19, 2007 (edited) well i got it all together,windows installed,both cards in. i have a problem tho. the catalyst control center wont let me enable crossfire. it sais that i either have the cable connected to the wrong dvi port on my slave or that it isnt connceted at all. well it is conected and i have tried both ports to no avail. what do i do? any one have this problem before? (EDIT) i think i made a big mistake. slave card is an asus x1800xt and no were on the box dose it say crossfire ready. the exact name of the crd is :asus eax x1800xt/2dhtv/512m/a. i do not believe this card supports crossfire. i feel like a moron.

ccokeman Posted January 19, 2007 Posted January 19, 2007 I just install both of mine and when i build the computer and have not had 1 issue in setting up crossfire. I have done this on 3 boards this year. You must have a crossfire master card to run crossfire. Both of mine are BBATI so maybe thats why i didn't have an issue.
