    Monitor loosing signal

    So I just added a second video card and now whenever I do any gaming after about 20 min or so I lose my connection and my monitors go black. Meanwhile the computer is still running. When I installed the 2nd card I removed the drivers and did a fresh install. As for temps I'm not seeing the cards get hotter than mid 50s. I'm only using one bridge but maybe its a motherboard thing. Both monitors couldn't be more different so I'm positive my monitors are not the problem. It stopped crashing on Black Ops MP when I lowered the anti-aliasing from 8 to 4. Playing Homefront today and it losses its signal just after the intro. Lowered the anti-aliasing to 2 on that and still crashed. I have now removed the 2nd card and I have had no crashing issues yet. So its either the power supply(650 antec) the 2nd card is bad, motherboard, or I was doing something wrong with the bridge. Gotta fo to work so I can't do any testing till I get back.

    Try the card you pulled out by itself, if it's running fine by itself then its not that.

    Try beta drivers to see if they work if not drop AA down to 0x and see if that works
