Crossfire help.

[ravesaint5]

So I just got my second 6950 in the mail. I plugged it in and only have 1 Crossfire bridge and put that in. When I turn on my PC, only 1 (Middle) out of 3 monitors turn on and when I check the device manager, I only see 1 'AMD Radeon 6900 series'.

Am I supposed to see 2 and is it mandatory to have 2 Crossfire bridges to get both cards working?

Thanks in advance.

EDIT:

Power Supply: 850 watts
GPU's: (Both) VisionTek 6950 (2GB)

have you tried the first gpu in the slot your putting the new one in.

In the bios is the 2nd PCI-E slot disabled?
Sometimes its factory set like that.

@Demar3214, Yes, I've tried.
@Ferinthul, I'll check that now.
