CrossFire™-Specific Troubleshooting
Problem Possible solution
CrossFire™ is
not functioning
In order for CrossFire™ to function, the CrossFire™
bridge interconnects must correctly connect the
CrossFire™ graphics cards.
1. Connect one end of the CrossFire™ bridge
interconnect to the internal VMO connection on one of
the cards.
2. Connect the other end of the CrossFire™ bridge
interconnect to the corresponding internal VMO
connection of the other card.
3. Repeat Steps 1 and 2 to connect the second
CrossFire™ bridge interconnect.
4. Connect the DVI-I connection on the primary
CrossFire™ graphics card to your monitor.
“Before
CrossFire™ can
be enabled, you
need to close the
3D application or
video playback
that is currently
running.”
You cannot enable CrossFire™ in the ATI Catalyst™
Control Center if a 3D application, game, or video
playback, such as a DVD movie, is running.
Close all open 3D applications, games, and movie player
applications, and then enable CrossFire™.

Catalyst™
Control Center is
Not Displayed
Ensure the CrossFire™ bridge interconnects have been
correctly attached. The CrossFire™ aspect is only
available when the two ATI Radeon™ HD 2600 Series
graphics cards have been correctly installed and
connected together.
“CrossFire™ Is
Currently
Unavailable.”
This error occurred because CrossFire™ did not correctly
detect your graphics hardware or there is a problem with
the software.
Make sure:
• The graphics cards are installed correctly.
• The interconnects are installed correctly.
• All running 3D applications are closed.
• You restart the ATI Catalyst™ Control Center.
For information on installing the software see the Getting
Started Guide that came with your graphics card.
