Hello, 
I recently bought an AMD HD7970. I had upgraded from an Nvidia gt 640 and Have been using Nvidia surround for quite a while. However when I moved over to the AMD side i plugged in my monitors (with adapters) and all 3 screens lit up and were functional. 

However when i set up and eyefinity group it will load past the 3x1 config then just duplicate each screen to show the exact same image. 

setup 
displayport-> VGA 
DVI->DVI ( i do have a displayport to dvi adapter but theirs no luck in using it) 
DVI -> (active dvi to vga adapter) VGA 

Thanks

My question is why are you using VGA?

idk about 7970, but for 7870 in order to run 3 monitor eyefinity, one of the displays NEEDS to be connected to the displayport output on the gpu, whether directly or using an ACTIVE adapter
