Anyone want to help a newb set up new hardware?  https://bitcointalk.org/index.php?topic=303094.new#new

I'm trying to use 7950 to mine and onboard 3300 for everything else, right now im using the 7950 for display and mining and getting pixilated spots, also having driver issues.

I'm posting here because the only cryptocurrency I have is these 3 coins, I'm willing to give up some UFC for help at this point!

Two things to note here:

You will need to enable the "Surround View" or equivalent option in the BIOS.

You will only be able to use catalyst driver version 12.4 or lower. Above that version, AMD separated the embedded video drivers from the main (discrete) driver package and getting both packages to work together is quite a PITA. One of the dumbest decisions made by the AMD engineering team.

EDIT: the 12.4 drivers may not work with the 7000 series, so your other option is to buy a low end AMD discrete card and put it in your system along with your 7950.
