I installed Windows 8 RTM x64 last night and I cant get eyefinity working on my dual screens. I was just wondering has anyone else run into this problem and if so did you overcome it and how?
When I install CCC windows 8 RP software the eyefinity option doesn't even come up.

Considering that RTM isn't officially out yet and you have a leaked/modified/tampered with copy...who knows what to expect.

Glad it ended up being a driver. The point i was trying to make is that often times these leaks are accompanied with unique issues and problems that you won't encounter with a legit release of the software. It's good to be aware that something may end up not being an issue in the end.

Thanks Jamesb3. I had a issue where the Driver from the Amd site would not install for my 6990. Kept coming up "driver fail". The one you posted the link to above works like a charm. Cheers Mate..
