    have you checked if crossfire is on in catalist cc? its under the performance tab

    those cards (as mine) do not have that check, until y reach 3d GPU .....

    OP, you need to have Catalyst AI ON or CF will be disabled

    also FUrmark is capped by ATi drivers .....

    Check with GPU-Z and POST a screenshot

    yes, that's why im asking for a gpu-z screenshot;

    just to let him know how it works with X2 cards; no checkbox for CF just Cat AI

    ....... until you plug the next card........ then it appears

    ^^ that's normal, X2 do not have that check

    you have a problem, gpu-z says CF disabled.......

    completely unistall all ati software and drivers, then go to pc/hardware/gpu and click the "delete all driver files" or so
    reboot
    gpu should appear as "generic gpu" , if not repeat steps

    then, dw and install drivers again

    Open device manager, one of the GPUs should be marked as disabled. Right-click it and choose [update driver software], browse for the folder where catalyst files are saved (the uncompressed files) and let windows find the driver.

    If windows tells you the best driver is already installed for your device, close the update driver wizard, right-click the disabled gpu again and choose [uninstall] from context-menu, check [delete the driver software for this device], restart windows and let it reinstall the driver at next logon.
