OK, so it seems that I need a dummy plug to be able to mine with my 2 6990s with Windows 7.

I have a monitor plugged in to one of the cards and that one is hashing away. The miner cannot detect / hash with the second one.

So here is my question. What happens if whilst the machine is mining I unplug the monitor from this one card and then plug it into the other one and then start those (or will my first one stop hashing the minute I unplug it)?

Second question: Eventually, there will be no monitors attached to the rig, I'll use logmein or vnc to get into it remotely. Does that mean I'll be needing 2 dummy plugs for both the cards?

Thanks for your help, folks!!

I'm not sure what would happen if you tried to unplug and plug in while the machine was hashing.. But I can answer your other question, yes you will need 1 dummy plug per card once you switch to headless with Windows.
