I just got my 5850 today and finished building my system tonight. I have an Apple 24" LED Cinema Display and thought it would work with the 5850 since it has Displayport. I'm using a female Mini Displayport to male Displayport cable, which according to the site I bought it from works with this setup, and the reviews claim it works as well. The display does work with my MBP so it isn't a problem with the display.

Does anyone have any idea why this wouldn't work? My DVI display works just fine hooked to the computer. I'm installing Windows now and will see if it works when booted into Windows. Perhaps it is just an issue with the POST not displaying over Display Port?
I'll be calling XFX and Circuit Assembly tomorrow to see if I can solve it, but I thought I'd check here to see if anyone else has tried a Display Port display with this new card or if anyone has used the Apple with a Displayport video card.
