delete post. thanks

Yey you are!

Your card has Two DVI Ports! IIRC one is a DVI-I port and the other is a DVI-D Port!
DVI-I = Outputs Digital + Analog signal by choice
DVI-D = Outputs Digital Signal only
DVI-A = Outputs Analog signal only!

You're using passive DVI-VGA adapters! which means a DVI-D Port on your GPU is connected but doesn't have the capabillity to output Analog signal!

You need DVI Cables! (your Monitor supports DVI, VGA (D-sub) and HDMI. Don't waste time with analog VGA cables!)

Oh, and don't even try to plug 2x DVI +1x HDMI. that doesn't work! You can either use 2x DVI or 1x DVI + HDMI, but not all together (Except you have an AMD FLEX card)

P.S You don't need an 98$ Adapter! Just because he's USB powered! There are also Active MiniDP->DVI Adapters without USB powered. Oh, and your Monitor supports only 1920x1080 Pixel! Single-Link DVI would be enough, you wouldn't need a "Dual Link DVI-> Mini DP adapter" there are adapters for around 20 or 30$ out there that work fine.

We gonna send it to outa space!

When using crossfire the other cards port are deactivated. You must plug all the monitors into the primary card. I can't tell from the picture if that is the case I am not familiar with those cards. Is there a switch that controls the DVI ports? Some cards have a switch in them to turn dual link dvi on or off.

so me getting 3 DVI cables was a smart idea! HUZZAH!

alright this is good news, I appreciate the feedback.

Here's hoping when i get my DVI-D cables, I don't run into many more issues.

Thank you! /cry

When I eventually get this working, ill be sure to post sexy pictures :3
And thanks you guys again.
