Radeon 7850 Triple Monitors Not Working Properly

I have a Radeon 7850 card with 2x DVI, 1x HDMI, and 1x DP+ ports.

Yesterday I updated the driver before installing 3 new monitors.

2 of them are connnected to DVI outputs to DVI inputs on monitors.

1 is connected to HDMI output to DVI input via adapter cable.

Here's my issues:

1) When I connect 2 of the monitors DVI inputs to the DVI outputs on the card, I can't extend the displays.

2) Extending the displays works if I connect one to HDMI output on card to DVI input on monitor via adapter cable and the other to DVI output on card to DVI input on monitor.

3) I can't get all three to work: When I attempt to connect all 3 monitors, one of them shows no connection—Yet, they all work fine otherwise.

Hopefully someone can help.

For 3 displays, 2 can be connected to DVI and/or HDMI ports, while the 3rd must be connected to DisplayPort using either a native DisplayPort monitor, which you don't have, or an ACTIVE DisplayPort to HDMI adapter.

Thanks so much for the quick response.
