Ok, I have a strange one here.
I have a pair of 8800GTXs, at first (on stock coolers) I was unsure to if I had SLI working or not, I did have an SLi Slider bar on the left hand side, during any game and on 3DMarks. I formatted the other day (was having a few problems and wasn’t in the mood to sort them out) since I have lost the SLi slider bar, and I am unsure if I am taking advantage of my two cards.
Is there any way I can tell if I have SLi working?
In the NVid tools I have selected SLI config, (it’s on in there) on my first boot up (after OS Install -XP Pro - and 97.92 driver) I had the SLi ready thing pop up.
I ran 3D06 for a lil bit then closed, took the SLi selection off and did the same again, FPS was no diff :S (on the GFX Test).
I keep getting the odd *Physical mem dump* related to NV I think. I am now very unsure on the situation @ hand
Any ideas for me fellows!
To add more to the list or problems!
It’s not the first time this has happened:
My rig locks up and nothing I can do will resume, so I restart manually, will not post, turn the rig off (this time for about an hour) and same thing no post, I have to remove power before it will boot again, I had this problem every time I restarted (I changed mem timings and it went away)
Now.... CoH each time I am playing it I get spikes in the game and my ram usage spikes to 90% sometimes I can keep the rig afloat others it’s the titanic. (Seems to do it since I patched! was playing ok for 2 hours or so on stock install)
Once the game starts I get like a graphics problem, I can still see the menu screen but it’s like a chess board and green! Screenshots remove it! Even print screens
