        It works and I think you need check your formular:
        Use "=B2=MAX($B2,$D2,$F2)"
        Not "=B2=MAX($B$2,$D$2,$F$2)"

    Let's say the data are in B2:B50, D2:D50 and F2:F50.

    Select F2:F50.

    Hold down Ctrl and select D2:D50.

    Still holding down Ctrl, select B2:B50.

    You should now have selected all three ranges, with B2 as active cell.

    On the Home tab of the ribbon, click Conditional Formatting > New Rule...
    Select 'Use a formula to determine which cells to format'.
    Enter the formula

    =B2=MAX($B2,$D2,$F2)

    Click Format...
    Activate the Fill tab.
    Select a highlight color.
    Click OK, then click OK again.
