I also found this. I dont know if it helps. I did rename my .exe file as it states and seemed to work fine in crossfire..
I renamed mine to bioshock as there are a couple suggestions.
No sure how many people have been having the same problem as me with serious amounts of flickering in game when using multiple GPU's but if you are having this problem here's a simple fix! Updated 3/25/2011 1. Make sure you have the latest ATI catalyst application profiles installed 2. Rename crysis2.exe to bioshock.exe (or run under radeon pro with with bioshock profile selected and run in fullscreen) 3. Play! very good scaling with my two 5770's and no screen flickering! yay!

Thanks man this really took the screen flickering away! FINALLY I CAN RUN THE GAME IN CROSSFIRE without flickering! But you don't have to run the game through Radeon Pro :/

With the latest 11.1 Caps you can also use the Need for speed Shift 2 profile on Crysis 2 just rename to Shift2 very good scaling also!

Right click on the crysis2.exe and click on "rename", then you type "rift", so then it becomes "rift.exe".

crossfire scaling is like 30% with this, if you rename to bioshock.exe is about 50% still nowhere near perfect.. crytek fails big time.

Not sure how it's really all Crytek's fault....AMD should have a better profile available. But ya it suck's how we can't maxout our cards in Crossfire.
This is a easy way to solve Crysis 2 texture problem thatyou just create a system.cfgfile in your root crysis directory and put r_TexturesStreaming=0 init.
