i don't know if i'll have time to test the windows driver to see if it behaves better. but i do plan on spending some time with the overdrive6 API, as i have a feeling that is the key here.
Unfortunately I had direct and negative experience with the following configuration with the 6XXX generation series and the 12.X drivers that existed at the time. I have since reverted to Linux and never looked back. I have the system configuration well documented and can share it with you if interested. Have you yourself ever attempted to configure x8 individual single core/asic gpu's on Windows 7 x64? If you can advise me of what generation of ATI GPU's, chassis model and driver set that you were successful with interacting with gpu's within Windows it would be nice to know incase I ever consider the Windows route again.
Also see posting here: even the newer Tyan series is exhibiting the same detection/# of usable devices within Windows 7 environment.
