Hi guys,

I just wanted to confirm what i have read and looked up, but is it true that i can not run Dual Monitor displays with Sli enabled on Windows XP? is that right? if so thats mega crap :shadedshu

As i have tried everything possible and it wont work or it just BSOD's on me (latest drivers are been used) video cards are 2 x 8600GT's..
