CCC Profile + Eyefinity Issues

Hey [H],

I've been trying to get this issue resolved on my own for a while, but I've basically run out of ideas.

The Problem: I've been having issues getting CCC to remember and properly switch between profiles that I've set up. Upon switching, my monitors will either be glitchy, or will be aligned in the wrong order.

The Setup:

Windows 7 Professional
Displays: 3x NEC EA231WMi, 1x Sony Bravia 46" LCD HDTV
GPUs: Gigabyte Radeon 5970, XFX Radeon 4350

Drivers: CCC version 2010.0406.2133.36843
.Net Framework version 2.0.50727.4927

My Goal:

Ideally, these are what my profiles would look like. The 5970 is pushing the NEC monitors, and the 4350 is dedicated to the HDTV.

Eyefinity Profile:

Extended Profile, No HDTV:

Extended HDTV Profile:

My Troubleshooting History:

I've tried drivers back to 10.2 without any change. My current extended no-hdtv profile actually disables the 4350, which seems to work ok, but then when I come back from Eyefinity, the monitors are always in the wrong order. Profile switching TO Eyefinity seems to work regardless of what profile I was in beforehand. It seems like reverting to an extended profile is the issue.

Hopefully I've provided enough information for you guys. If not, I'll do my best to get whatever you might need. Any help would be appreciated.
 
Hmm no idea if it will help but you might try using Powerstrip to check out the EDID stored in the registry and make sure it's identified the monitors properly and not identifying them as Generic PNP Monitor.
 
My monitors also are ordered improperly when switching back from Eyefinity to Extended.
 
I tried Powerstrip, and it looks like all the monitors are coming back with the correct identity. Any other ideas?
 
I too am having an issue switching between an Eyefinity Profile and my Extended Desktop. I can switch TO the Eyefinity Profile fine, but when I switch back the monitors are in the wrong order. This is with version 10.4. I think it was working better in 10.3 so I may just roll it back. Any ideas how to make it work with 10.4?
 
Nevermind, evidently if I just hit my hot key for the Extended Profile a second time, the displays will rearranged themselves into the correct order.
 
Oh this is annoying. Hitting the hot key combination a 2nd time had no effect for me.

Got it...stupid hotkey program hung.
 
Does anyone now know how to get these Eyefinity Profiles working in CCC 2? In fact, I can't get any profiles at all to do what I want. Can someone give me a blow by blow description of how to store the monitor arrangement into a Profile (or preset as they are now called)? I hit hotkeys, activate them manually, but no matter what I do, the profiles seem to have no record of the information I tried to store in them.

edit: Even with the latest preview drivers, they've upgraded CCC2 to Vision Engine Control Center, and still the profiles are not doing anything useful for me. The most important thing is storing my monitor arrangements, I don't even care if I have to redo the 3D Settings. But going back and forth between Eyefinity and Extended Desktop manually is really really stupid.
