Well, wish I knew. MS is still doing stuff to Windows 10 and you might check to see which build of Windows 10 you have.
This l link below  claims to have the right driver, but I am not able to check it out.

Some users gripe about the above site.
Be care full, some driver sites just want to get into your PC.
So, you want to look around and find the best drivers for that card.
You should stick with the AMD site.
http://support.amd.com/en-us/
You have to look around and find the driver section.

I may be reading it wrong but you can't use VGA for your 3rd connection...

"" Maximum 2 outputs"...

AMD Eyefinity is the brand name for AMD products which support multi-monitor setups by integrating multiple (up to six) display controllers on one GPU.[1] AMD Eyefinity was introduced with the Radeon HD 5000 Series "Evergreen" in September 2009
And it goes on to say...
Quote
AMD Eyefinity supports a maximum of 2 non-DisplayPort displays (e.g. HDMI, DVI, VGA, DMS-59, VHDCI) (which AMD calls "legacy output") and up to 6 DisplayPort displays simultaneously using a single graphics card or APU. To feed more than two displays, the additional panels must have native DisplayPort support.[3]
You can only have two legacy ports.   :'(
So the problem is not Windows 10.

Maybe he will come back and admit that it was not he, but a friend who had it working with the right monitor interface.
Cards like the one mentioned come with cables to adapt to different monitors, including legacy types. One might think he  can have three outputs because there are enough connectors. But one has to read the documentation.

The AMD card will drive three monitors and more if the monitors are all of the type required. Other combinations are possible, but at least one out of three has to be the new kind of interface.

DisplayPort is a digital display interface developed by the Video Electronics Standards Association (VESA). The interface is primarily used to connect a video source to a display device such as a computer monitor, though it can also be used to carry audio, USB, and other forms of data.
