Unable to get display on third monitor. My configuration is

Board Asus m5 A97 Radeon 6800 series graphics card Processor AMD FX(tm)-8120 Eight-Core Processor, 3100 Mhz, 8 Core(s), 8 Logical Processor(s)

Monitors #1 HDMI connected to native port Monitor #2 conneted to DP via DP-DVI Adaptor Monitor #3 connected to DVI port via VGA-DVI adaptor

The monitors are getting detected in device manager.

Also getting detected by AMD vision engine control center, but being shown in black, but not being seen in AMD eyefinity multidisplay, while trying to create display group.

In the display for "creating and arranging desktop", in AMD vision engine control center, there are two sets of monitor displayed. Top display shows two desktop, while bottom "please select a display", shows 3 detected monitors. when I try to right click on the list of monitors and try doing "extend", it says "To extend the desktop, a desktop or display must be disabled".

The third VGA monitor is with 1600 #1380 resolution and is working perfectly fine. I can create a display out of only two of these monitors, but all 3 do not work together.

All monitors are benQ make, 24 inch, 24 inch and 19". All drivers are up to date

Make sure that the adapter is an active one. Something like https://www.amazon.com/Cable-Matters-Active-DisplayPort-Adapter/dp/B00EDSZYII

Does it work, if it's the only monitor connected to the graphics card?
It might not be active?

See the price difference?

Alex, the device is not working. I will buy adaptor where it is clearly written as ACTIVE. I hope that is the only problem. The online delivery may take 2-3 weeks, will update when I get it. Thanks for the help.

You're welcome. Hopefully, the new one will solve the issue.
