Crossfire Setup problems.

[foxeh30]

Hi all, first post and everything..shame it has to be a problem..

Ive just bought the following hardware:

Intel E6600
ASUS P5W DH motherboard
ATi x1950 Crossfire Edition
Sapphire x1950XTX
Acer 24" LCD
Corsair TwinX 2x1GB
Enermax Liberty 600W PSU

Now I had no problems setting it up. Installed my Catalyst drivers fine aswel. I then ran 3dMark 05 to see what it could do and I was abit miffed to find 10,000 Marks in front of me. 10,000 looks like a single card score to me..

I checked CCC to make sure Crossfire was enabled as I thought it might have enabled it automatically. Problem is I havent got the Crossfire option in my CCC in either Basic or Advanced.

I have made sure that the Crossfire card is in the Prim PCI-e slot for my motherboard which is the top slot(orange one) snd the normal 1950 is in the bottom. I have the DVI connector plugged into the right socket on the back of the slave card(also tried the other one to make sure). I have tried installing the individual drivers for each card (Connect3d for the master, Sapphire for the slave), ive tried using the Cat 6.10 BETA, 6.9 and 6.4. And I still havent got a crossfire option.

Windows recognises both cards but CCC only recognises the Master Card.

Anyone had any similar problems or am I just being a nub and the problem is staring me in the face. I bought both cards from OcUK.

Any suggestions are welcomed, thank you in advance.

I have tried both cards seperately yes and they both work. I have looked in the BIOS but there isnt an option to enable dual card support as fas as I can tell. :/

I meant to say the Crossfire cable is plugged into the right DVI port on the Slave card sorry.

I have checked and rechecked that I have the cable set up properly

The cable is setup right, i have seen that many diagrams of it i would know if it was wrong!
