I come to figure out unless I go to full screen the 2nd GPU is not used AND fps are almost half.For what ever silly reason the game wants to open in window mode where I can still see the windows task bar and I have to set to full screen to get both GPU working in x fire.

thats not something new, crossfire always only work in fullscreen, least from my experience.

I haven't had any issues with my Crossfire. Both cards run at 99%.

I'm running CAP and the beta driver.

Thanks for this helped solve quite a few of my issues. However i am still occasionally getting pauses in the game and a bit of stuttering but has helped a lot.

AVG around 50-60 on caspian on max with everything on ultra and 2xmsaa with 5850 cf and at 1680x1050

Just wish i could solve this little stutter issue and then it would be perfect. Anyone any ideas what may be causing it?

I get the odd stutter but remember this is a beta driver - this is as good as it will get until we get the full game and new driver.

Thank you very much for this fix Doolie, works perfectly fine on my Crossfire HD6870's.

Though I'm experiencing black background flickering here and there in the park in Operation Metro, near the water and the far end background. (Not screen surface).
Do you know any solution to this, or are you experiencing the same?

I can't find this "beta" driver (11.10?). Can someone point me in the right direction.
