Hello everyone. I have two Ati Radeon x1950 Pros in my computer right now and for some reason I can't get them to run. The computer is recognizing both video cards, but I don't know how to enable crossfire. I went into the catalyst control center and yet there is no option that will enable it. I enabled it in the bios, but that did nothing. And yes, I have both bridges up and running. So can anyone help me out?

Jam it back in, in the dark.

Mind sharing some motherboard specs?

According to their FAQ page (see #5 and click on compatibility list) you will require a certain chipset to enable two x1950 PROs.

There's nowhere I can't reach.

I currently have a Asus P5N-E SLI.

This thing is sticky, and I don't like it. I don't appreciate it.

Hrm, ouch.
Correct me if I'm wrong but doesn't that motherboard contain Nvidia's nForce 650i SLI chipset? Long answer short you can't crossfire with a Nividia chipset based board. The compatibility list says you can only use two kinds of chipsets with two x1950 PROs. And that's ATI's CrossFire Xpress 3200 and Intel's 975X chipset.

Sorry man, I think it's a no go

Damnit, so I can only SLI the Nvidia cards on this motherboard? What a load of crap. So I have to use only one ati card then....

Damnit.

I was speaking idiomatically.
