Hi Everyone,

I have a situation with trying to get 2 monitors and a Wacom Cintiq to work together.

I have a Radeon HD 6950 video card which you can see here.... https://tinyurl.com/s4o2ewm

I have two identical Samsung SyncmasterE2420 monitors and a Wacom Cintiq 21UX

Here's my current connections

Samsung Monitor: DVI-D Single Link
Samsung Monitor: DisplayPort
Wacom Cintiq 21UX: DVI-I Single Link

For some reason, I am only able to get two displays to work at once...not all 3 at once.... I can either get both monitors to work at once or one monitor and the Cintiq to work at once.

I'm at my witzend trying to figure out why ine the world I can't get all 3 displays to function at the same time.

Below are some specs of my system...if there's something else that anyone here needs to see in order to give me some ideas, let me know and I'll do my best to provide it.

Thank you all SO much for any help!!

Here's some specs on my computer via the Speccy application.

There isn't the usual gold contact ads found in hifi crowd in the displayport market. Everything is right on target, but you could go to linus tech tips if you want. You need a displayport mst hub.
Doesn't it come with one?
PS: lol, no. :)
