Crossfire Problems

I just recently built a Core 2 Duo system, and I haven't been able to get crossfire to work in Battlefield 2 and FEAR with my new Asus P5W DH Deluxe. I used these same two video cards on my DFI CFX3200 that I used to have and had absolutely no issues at all with them, and crossfire ran very smoothly. I am able to run through 3DMark06 without a hitch, but when I play BF2 or FEAR, my screen is completely scrabled and I can't make out anything. When I disable crossfire, the games both run fine. I am running Catalyst 6.8, and both BF2 and FEAR have the latest patches installed. Does anyone have an idea as to what might be causing this. I have uninstalled and re-installed Catalyst many times, and I have even tried to run a previous version of Catalyst and had no success. Is it maybe a bad motherboard?
 
I didn't reinstall windows with the new motherboard. I made sure to remove all of the old drivers though. Should I have installed a fresh copy of Windows?
