Thread Starter 
I've had a sapphire 6850 for about a month now, and i recently acquired a powercolor 6850.
I know I installed the bridge, and the 2nd GPU in the right slot

(Sorry, its a really bad blurry picture).


After booting up windows, my screen flickered black about 3-4 times, and just went back to normal. It still happens once in a while, and changed the resolution on the thing i was just on (including chrome) to 800x600. I am currently reinstalling my drivers to see how it goes.

Any other ideas if i did anything wrong?
