I'm running win 7 ult 64bit. i confirmed that the reg value for EnableLUA is set at "0" when uac is turned off. i also tried running the install while in test mode, no go. same message. in yellow " Please run this as administrator" i'll dig thru the forums and see if the win 8-8.1 walk thru will help.
i deleted lines 5+6 in the install.CMD. Good to go, Works Great! Big thanks to Ember for keeping this going. and of course to "the man" Anytolymik. Thanks Guys :)

From what iv'e read through the forum it should if your mobo can handle/fit the cards. BTW my windows graphics score went from 7.6 with hyperSLI to 7.7 with DifferentSLIauto. fps increase in games also.

I didn´t test it and did not read if someone test it...
Anyways... i think that your question should be in the HyperSLI thread: http://www.techpowerup.com/forums/threads/hypersli-enabling-sli-on-non-sli-motherboards.153046/
Unless your motherboard support 3-Way SLI and you have 3x GTX660... in that case, no patch should be needed...

My motherboard supports it, but GTX 660 does not. They only have one SLi connector.

So, I was wondering if this would make it work without the SLi connector, allowing Triple-SLi on a non-Ti GTX 660.

hello, the linking of gtx 780+gtx 660ti will work?
No... totally different GPU... Only 780 + 660ti for physx

You are right... i forgot that... Sorry.
You should try that without any patch... maybe it work?

Hi Guys !!! I'm new to this thread awesome tool

Can anyone tell me if it was tested for QUAD SLI ? i have a 780 back from RMA and i have 3 already on water, and as you may know NVIDIA blocked drivers above 320 so they cant run with the goal of not compiting with the TITANS :/

Thanks to all !!!

@andressergio uh... Quad SLI is only meant for both Titan Z & GTX780 Ti cards. Baseline 780 limits at Triple SLI mode as far as I can remember...

Yes but is a limit from the Driver not the Mother or VGA :) It does work with the 320 drivers but i'm finding a way to see what it checks (not the inf now they hardcoded it) to run it. Another member told me that driver checks some random codes on EPROM of VGA but NVIDIA is too lazy to do that so i will do some experiments.

If anyone has any info please share it !!! Thanks to all !!!

Hi,
I have a 670 and a 680. When I had two 670s all was well, then I had to RMA one and got a 680 back and they refuse to change it to a 670. I can't get this to work for the life of me. Both are the 2GB cards. Any help is appreciated. Thanks!

Also, should mention that the 680 will not let me install drivers for it. All drivers are installed but when I try to change them to what they should be the device manager argues and says it won't do it or says they installed so I will reboot and device manager still has the yellow triangle next to it and shows error 43

The 680 alone won't install ? i mean withouth the Sli Tool ? My 780 i had to send to RMA as it worked, was new but after drivers installed worked only 2D...drivers didn't see it. Even on a new reinstall. I checked volts, everyting was fine...After a week of Tests i got too much stressed with it and send it back.

If you do a Clean install on another SSD or HDD and put the card and install drivers and have same problem then is the card. You can also try to flash original BIOS wich also didnt work for me.

Hope you can make it bro !!!

I have quadsli working really nice from Decemeber 2012 with HyperSli but with drivers newer than 335.23 drivers HyperSli doesnt work anymore so i switched with DifferentSliAuto v1.1 and Quadsli is working again.

but this is a specific issue with the GTX780 that nvidia blocked to do SLI do you think that with this tool will work ? DifferentSliAuro v1.1 where is this tool from ?

Thanks and Kind Regards
