There is no ntoskrnp.exe or SLi Folder, and I've manually pasted halsli.dll but it didn't help

after you pasted they, did SLIEnabled booted?

did you run installsli.cmd as administrator?
have you ever edit boot.ini file?

Before this, there was an error about SLi Enabled having a hal something .dll missing indeed

However, once I pasted it, the error does not come up anymore, but it still does not boot

My PC will go to the windows XP Loading Screen and then reboot

I haven't edited the boot.ini

And I am on Windows XP and I am the only user on the computer, so I am an administrator and it said the SLi Patch install was successful

How can I get rid of all the extra boot options saying SLi Enabled, because they're really annoying and the uninstall SLi Patch does not work

MSI 790FX-GD70 w/ Phenom II X4 965

New patch not working.
Cleaned out old drivers and SLI patch, rebooted, uninstalled SLI string, rebooted 2x.
Installed SLI String and rebooted two more times, ran InstallSLI.cmd, rebooted into SLI-Enabled kernel, installed 195.62 drivers and rebooted.

did you tried old driver? (191 or 190)

Are both GPU's connected to NB?

Thank you to posters trying to help and developers who made this available. I had this working on XP 32. Then upped to 7 64. I had some trouble getting to work with the latter initially. After a re-install and regroup of my faculties, I got it to work tonight smooth as ... I used 190.62 7 64 and followed this. It was easy this time. Rebooted twice after installer and disabled UAC and rebooted. Then applied patch. sweet.

Section F. Windows 7 64-bit, method 2, SLI patch 0.2

Step 1 Download SLI String installer v.2.0 and unpack in to folder on HDD. Run slistringinstall.exe.
Step 2 Press ASUS, regardless of real motherboard, to patch Windows registry with SLIC certificate
Step 3 Disable UAC
Step 4. Download SLI patch tool v0.2 for Windows 7 64bit, and unpack it to folder.
Step 5. Enter command prompt with administrator rights and run InstallSli.cmd. To undo all changes to system enter prompt and run UninstallSli.cmd. After reboot SLI must work.

Did exactly. From xDevs. ty

Yes, hacked SLI worked with 190.62, just wanted the newer drivers for stability and minor performance increases.

Everything's connected and working fine;

Nope

It goes to Windows XP Professional SLIEnabled x32 and gets to the windows XP Loading Screen for about 10 seconds, and then reboots

It has created an SLi Folder but the folder is empty

I have installed SLi String Installer v2.0, and rebooted twice, but Everest Ultimate Edition does not show an SLIC Certificate. Why is this?

No it didn't boot

It did the same thing. I chose Windows XP Professional SLIEnabled x32, it went to the Windows XP Loading Screen (at the bottom left, instead of Copyright Microsoft Corporation, it was written in Russian or something) and then my PC rebooted... so I'm afraid no it did not boot

However in safe mode, Windows XP Professional SLIEnabled x32 WILL boot

What is causing this? :'(

EDIT: I have the latest nVIDIA drivers installed (195) if that is relevant
