Hi m stats are in my sig i turned off pc last night all ok went to turn it on and noticed that the second card was showing 0% in msi afterburner. uninstalled the drivers used DDU in safe mode but still nothing also i dont see an option in CCC to enable crossfire.
The card fires up fans spin msi show the cards temps and so on but its noot using the card and amd drivers show it as disabled.
 
Yes mate done all of that what i have noticed is when i uninstall the graphics drivers and windows reboots when i check device manger theirs always one vga card with a yellow triangle the top one, not sure if thats normal or not.
Also msi afterburner picks both cards up shows temps for both cards and usage even though i have not disabled upls but always the second one stays 0 usage.
 
I have just tried to install the default standard vga driver the one with the yellow triangle and its says This device cannot start. (Code 10).
 
the 290s don`t need that mate yes i have tried both cards in both slots each cards works with no problems they just wont crossfire they are no way i can get the pci e slot 2 to be enabled when both cards are running.
The only way i can is to connect another monitor to the second card then it says the adapter is enabled in ccc but still no way to get it to go in crossfire there is no option to enable it i am no out of idea`s tbh.
It cant be my cpu can it thats the only thing i have changed in the last few days?
 
Well i have tried everything so i decided to put my i5 2500k back in turned pc on boom crossfire right away, so i put the i7 3770k back again and crossfire still working lmao what a pain in the ass this has been the last 2 days.
Do you think my i7 3770k is faulty? or just one of them things i just don`t understand what happened all i done the night before, was to turn the pc off then went to turn it on again next day and it never worked when i went to play bf4.
