Anyone have these things working in crossfire???????

I am pulling my hair out trying to get them working

Have tried 4 MB's so far (LGA775) and had no luck

What BIOS?.......I've heard that crossfire will only work with latest

So far the only BIOS that will load up is the one that came on the CD, 6.14
These things make great bookends BTW

Curious, but why did you try ATI. I thought you were a Nvidia fanboy RJ?!

Some sort of wild hair I guess?
(they seem to get the best scores in 3D01, and I was in a contest again)

It will be a cold day in hell before I do it again, that's for sure

So far I've tried
Asus P5N32-SLI SE Deluxe (runs the 1900's, but not the 1950's)
Abit AW9D-Max (shows Crossfire as enabled, but no change in scores)
and P5B Deluxe (no luck at all)

I'm picking up an Asus P5W DH, in the morning, this MB holds the 3DMark 01 record running Crossfire (fingers crossed)

I will try any MB suggested, but it has to be able to OC the CPU as well
The P5N32-SLI SE, wont break 320 on the FSB, but gets great scores with 2 7900GTX's (great for the lack of OC)

Well I got the cross wired working, but's buggy as all H*** (not impressed so far)
The P5W DH OC's like mad though, I'll post some Benchies soon
