AMD CrossFireX Disabled After Swapping/Moving Cards

If you change the AMD CrossFireX configuration by moving the graphics cards to

default settings in Catalyst Control Center first. Once the cards have been swapped,

enable AMD CrossFireX. This ensures the new configuration is detected by the

computer.
