    Hello
    I've been encountering following problem since this morning
    simply I can't get crossfire enabled in CCC first i check it a flicker happens then it becomes unchecked again!
    I believe that problem has happened last night
    I remember I got an error about that VGA is incompatible with driver or something like that then i've found out that crossfire is disabled i've attempted to enable it again but it has been grayed out and some other problems showed in ATT Monitoring graph

    i've assumed that something went wrong with my second card so i've connected DVI cable to my second card and it worked fine
    still i couldn't enable crossfire but i was getting almost constant 60 fps in Oblivion and Fallout 3 the settings are almost maxed out ! (Crossfire was still seemed to be disabled)
    even i've experienced some framedrops in Oblivion and Fallout 3 and Fallout 3 was giving me around 30 fps
    i assume that's kinda software problem as well as i doubt that's a software problem ...
    btw i'm using Catalyst 8.12

    Whats wrong with my crossfire rig ?!

    also i've trid to reinstall it but neither uninstall nor install is possible Catalyst Install Manager Crashes with following description

    Its more than likely a software /driver issue. 9.1 will be out soon. Hopefully this will be adressed.
