Help with SLI Issue!

Well,
I finally got everything together and windows installed. So I get all of my drivers set up, and I go to enable SLI (I am currently using 2 of my 3 gtx260's.) Whenever I enable SLI my monitor goes into power save mode and nothing can wake it up. Also if I shut down the computer manually from the power save mode and try to boot into windows with SLI enabled, after getting past the login screen it goes back into power save mode. So I am severely confused on what the problem could be. My PSU is plenty powerful enough for 2 260gtx's. My third gtx is in the middle of the 2 that I'm using, but is unplugged. I have a 3 way bridge, but I don't think that one card being unplugged would cause an issue like that. More troubleshooting tomorrow. Any ideas guys?
 
Did you try plugging the monitor cable into a different port on the same/different GPU? It's probably kicking the video signal to a different port.
 
Yeah, I tried. Fortunately, I solved the problem! The 3 video cards were making the sli bridge just a tad bit off. I removed the middle card, and re-seated the bridge. I'm in sli as we speak :D
