I cannot get it work.

Gigabyte X38-DQ6, 2x GTX 260 EVGA and Q6600 CPU.
HyperSLI installed correctly and is activated but I cannot activate SLI-Mode withing the NVIDIA Control Panel (290.53 Drivers).

I've done some more testing and I'm relative sure that HyperSLI doesn't support NVIDIA Surround at the moment.

Is there a chance that it will be supported soon?

Ok...

Did it work out of the box? And which driver version are you using?
I'm a bit confused, because SLI works fine, but I'm not able to activate Surround.

Hello guys! Please, I need some help with my SLI.

In my case, I was able to install HyperSLI 0.7, but when I try to activate on Nvidia Control Panel my computer freezes.

I'm trying to get two PNY Geforce 7950 gt (285.62 nvidia drivers) working on a P5W DH DELUXE motherboard using Windows 7-64.

PS: I am using a flexible ASUS bridge.

Thanks.

I've tried the following drivers without luck:

285.38, 285.62, 285.79, 290.36, 290.53

Is there anything else I could do to get NVIDIA Surround to work?

Help!

I can´t get SLI to work. Installed Hypersli -ok. Latest Quadro Drivers.

Cant Enable SLI in Nvidia control panel. Tried everything in this forum.

Anyone knows if its even possible to run SLI with Intel 5400 Chipset , 2 Quad-Core Intel® Xeon® Processor E5430/ 2.66 GHz,1333 MHz FSB, 80 watt and 2 Nvidia Quadro FX 3700.


Both cards installed ok. SLI bridge from ASUS.

Hypersli runs ok. everything seems just fine, but I don´t get the "enable sli" option in Nvidia Control Panel. Is it possible to run sli at all on my rig?

1. All previous drivers deleted with Driversweeper.
2. Installed HyperSLI.
3. Reboot.
4. HyperSLI Starts - "Hypervisor Enabled", "Hypervisor works properly".

Still No indication of SLI. And no "Enable SLI" in Nvidia Control Panel (v.3.7.800.0).
Nvidia Quadro Driver 8.17.12.7642.
UAC disabled.
Virtualization Technology enabled in BIOS.

What could have gone wrong?
Different BIOS on the Cards?

Is not a bios or clock matter. And not a Hypersli issue either. Are the cards exactly the same model? Same Vram?

Same Vram on both cards.. Same model(Quadro FX 3700). The only thing that differs is the bios. One has: 66.92.97.00.13 and the other has 66.92.19.00.07. I got a SLI bridge from the local computerstore.. (ASUS). (tried it both ways). Even tried to swap the cards. both slots are PCIE x16 gen2.

Any more tips on whats wrong?
Driver issue?
Wrong/faulty SLI -Bridge?
Some say it works on Intel 5400 Chipset.. and som say it don´t..

Guess i´m gonna try to reinstall Win7. haven´t tried that yet....

i am running 290.36 all i did was plug in 3 monitors and then it pops up in nvidia where the sli controls are that was it. well i had to move the monitors around on the cards till they all worked 2 on the first card, one monitor on the secound card

edit i hope you where talking about 2d surround....

i thought you where talking about hypersli and 2d surround.........

Hi,
yes, I'm talking about 2D Surround.

But I'm giving up... I've already wasted too much time and I've no idea what the problem could be.

Hey anatolymik, ive been reading online about HyperSLI and i really want to try it, but i am very scared because i dont want to spend $200 on a video card then let it not work and im in no mood to buy a new mobo. I have a ASUS M4A79XTD EVO and a AMD 955 Phenom II X4 3.2ghz CPU. My video card is EVGA GTX 560 (non ti) Superclocked 1GB. What do u think has HyperSLI been proven on my system? Also 8 months ago i had a CrossfireX setup on my pc, my mobo only doesnt support SLI, and it does have virtualization.

You have solved the problem of BSOD when alt+tab ?
