Am having loads of problems trying to run 5870 in crossfire.
ive tryed fresh instalasion of vista 64. loaded 10.2/10.3/10.3a/10.3b drivers with no sucess. ive tryed running one bridge running them with two bridges.
am now thinking my mobo might be the problem.
its got the latest drivers 0902.
Any help is much appreciated

If it is my motherboard is this set up better then what ive got
Asus P6TD Deluxe Intel X58 (Socket 1366) DDR3 Motherboard

Intel Core i7 920 D0 Stepping (SLBEJ) 2.66GHz (Nehalem) (Socket LGA1366)
