3 displays at once from single HD 2600

[aidan]

I have a HD2600 hooked up to two DVI screens and a component screen (via the dongle), but catalyst c.c. only lets me enable any 2 at a time. Anyone know how to make all 3 outputs work at once? If it helps i want the component to be a clone of one of the DVI's.

It looks like I might have to get a second GFX card, which I'd rather advoid for stability reasons.

Oh yea, vista64..

Thanks!

im pretty sure thats not possible.

Also don't think it's possible with one video card...however if you have an ATI integrated video mainboard I think you can run both at the same time..

Other than that (or a 2nd dedicated card) I don't think it's possible..

I contacted ATi support and they confirmed that usually only any 2 outputs can be enabled at once.

Apperntly though there is a way to clone the component signal to the main monitor (exactly the setup I am after), but they seemed not to know how that was done :S

This could all be avoided if the profiles in catalyst worked properly, but when different cominations of outputs are used in different profiles, switching between them doesn't work
