I'm having a problem. I was running triples with one HDMI and 2 DVI and using my HDMI to my receiver to get surround sound. I unhooked everything and moved my setup upstairs, and now the HDMI will not work with triple screens. If I go all DVI they work fine, but if I try to use either cards HDMI Nvidia setup says to use a different port on the same card. Everything worked great last night. I did switch to a different surround sound receiver, but even when I skip the receiver and go straight to the middle monitor it still says to switch to a different port on the card. I've tried the HDMI on both cards and Nvidia won't let me use either one now, Only HDMI. If I just use one screen the hdmi is fine, it's only bad during triples.
The reason I am wanting to go HDMI is so I can carry my sound through HDMI to me receiver. I don't have an optical out on my PC.

I'm using GTX 570s.
Any help would be great.
 
I think I figured it out. For some reason it wouldn't work unless I did HDMI, DVI on the first card and DVI only on the second. I could have sworn I had it hdmi card 1, then DVI,DVI card 2 before.
