When the settings are applied SLI reboots with error: DRIVER_CORRUPTED_EXPOOL
Windows 8.1 64bit NVIDIA 460 and NVIDIA 9600 GT - Can I make this configuration work?

VRAM size must match because the VRAM of the first card has to be copied to second card, if this cannot complete the driver will crash! SLI will never work with cards of different VRAM size, only same chip in different series (ex. GTX 670 + GTX 680, GTX 680 + GTX 770...)
checksum.exe
false positive due to packer, anti-virus is too dumb to unpack and analyze and just does generic sig match on packer
NVIDIA 460 and NVIDIA 9600 GT
No, impossible.
NVIDIA_DEV.0E22 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460"
NVIDIA_DEV.0E23 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 SE"
NVIDIA_DEV.0E24 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 "
NVIDIA_DEV.1205 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460 v2"
-------------
NVIDIA_DEV.0622 = "NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT"
NVIDIA_DEV.062D = "NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT "
NVIDIA_DEV.062E = "NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT "
NVIDIA_DEV.0637 = "NVIDIA GeForce 9600 GT "

First three values of DEV must match!

Anatoly are you there? I need to know if the 331.x drivers will be supported, because I'm trying to put together Zotac 680 Amp! Edition and EVGA 660Ti sc on SLI...
Thank you very much for your hard work.

anatolymik does not support this anymore. I support it. Please check my post for the download of my patcher: http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/sli-with-different-cards.158907/page-29#post-3008883

Hello Ember, the test to put together an "GTX680 amp! edition" and a "EVGA GTX660Ti sc" with your DiferentSLIAuto.exe, and the result was a malfunction of the driver 331.65. The graphics acceleration was gone, in the nvidia control panel, I can see the sli between this two cards. As a result the nvidia control pannel was useless when I activate de SLI. I will try with another driver version to see if works. This two cards are fully compatible.

Thanks for your reply and sorry for my english.;)

This patcher will automatically patch and sign "nvlddmkm.sys" for NVIDIA drivers for 64-bit systems to enable SLI with different cards.

To use:
--------
1) Install original NVIDIA drivers
2) Put cards together you want to SLI
3) Reboot
4) Copy original "nvlddmkm.sys" from "C:\Windows\System32\drivers\" and put it in the same folder as the patcher.
5) Run "DifferentSLIAuto.exe" and press patch, if everything went well it will say that patching was successful, if not contact Ember on techPowerUp! and do not continue.
6) Log in as Administrator
7) UAC must be disabled

Hello,


Your problems could be wrong card matching:

NVIDIA_DEV.1004 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 780" (think this is the same for TI version)
NVIDIA_DEV.1005 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX TITAN"


There is a list of card DEV numbers that have to match. We apologize it's missing from the first post in this thread and we hope to have that fixed soon.

780Ti (3GB) and GTX Titan (6GB) have different VRAM size. Please reference an older post by me on the same page... Cards need to copy VRAM contents between both, if VRAM size is different, driver will BSoD or be unstable. As a rule of thumb, SLI will never work with cards of different VRAM size, only same chip in different series with same VRAM size (ex. GTX 670 + GTX 680, GTX 680 + GTX 770...)

So they are not connected in any way Sli?

Trying to find others. Our most recent DEV lists need a refresh. I wish Nvidia would keep on top of this in driver releases.

These will be in the NVIDIA notebook drivers, not the desktop release.
DEV_0FD1.C0CC.144D = "NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M"

DEV_0FD1.C634.144D = "NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M "
DEV_0FD1.C650.144D = "NVIDIA GeForce GT 650M "
-----
DEV_0FE4.3800.17AA = "NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M"
DEV_0FE4.3801.17AA = "NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M "
DEV_0FE4.3802.17AA = "NVIDIA GeForce GT 750M "
