I have a box with 4 XFX GeForce 5200's in it. These each have one DVI and one DSUB connector.

Monitors are connected in 3 ways... DSUB->DSUB, DVI->DVI, DVI->IncludedConverter->DSUB

No matter what the combo plugged into card 1, it works. No matter where connection types 1 & 2 show up, they work. But the converter does not work on cards 2,3 & 4.

Just blank screens there.

Any ideas?
 
Have you chenged the setting to make the other cards active?

Yes, they're all active, and if I just swap the DVI+Convert+VGA cable for a DVI cable it works fine... problem is I don't want it that way.
 
Hmm,

Not sure then,

I haven't had experience with that many GeForce 5200's.

Let us know if you get anywhere with it.
