Note: DSDT memory address dump don't show SLI SLIC table.

If the insert is done correctly it should look like this: Starting point to look for in black is were you look to place & ending point in black also.
In red is the insert. nvlddmkm-64bit_rev_2 is the driver that should be used.

Edit: If you need more help getting this going, go back to page #22 & read from post #545 onward were sveetsnelda & I talk about the setup & install.
Follow what he walked me threw should get you going.

Run the Driver Signature Enforcement Overrider
(http://www.ngohq.com/home.php?page=dseo)

Select "Sign a System File"
type in C:\windows\system32\drivers\nvlddmkm.sys

Reboot, and enable SLI.



(Make sure you are using an ASUS SLIC)

Wasn't a nvlddmkm.sys in C:\windows\system32\drivers\ when I copied it there.
You also didn't say if I should enable test mode when I ran dseo13b.exe.
I did choose to enable test mode, so I hope that was correct?

There should have been an old driver to overwrite. It wont show up in Windows Explorer, but you'll see it in the command prompt.

Did you disable UAC? Did you sign the driver (with DSEO)?

The short cut copy of the driver was the problem.
So you others take note.. lol

Screen shot to follow...
Say the driver is in the C:\ACPI folder do copy with CMD=Command Prompt as admin: copy C:\ACPI\nvlddmkm.sys C:\windows\system32\drivers\
Make sure UAC is disabled. The SLI SLIC table above in red is the universal table to use with the rev2 driver.

To make it more simplified you can place the: nvlddmkm.sys file in the root of C: then the command you run would look like this:

copy C:\nvlddmkm.sys C:\windows\system32\drivers\ <=You can type this in the cmd prompt or copy paste it if the path is the same.


Remember this needs to be done from a Command Prompt window ran as admin. <very important.
Click Start type in search: "cmd" right click it & run as admin <=W7 way..
It will ask to overwrite answer: Yes




Had nothing better to do so I thought I place it all in one post. If there is anything I missed please let me know so I may add to this post.
