I've been having the same problem since my first attempt Baked - At this point I'm only able to get the SLIString method working with patched drivers.
It looks like it could be related to ACPI 2.0 support, my board (Gigabyte P55A-UD3) only supports ACPI 1.0b.
P55 does support SLI, but you have to use a certified board. You are probably correct that there is a bios lock which is holding me back... I've tried about everything I can think to do, short of flashing my board with another Gigabyte board's bios. By that point I may as well just buy a new...
I've tried using both Halmod 0.9 and SLIPatch 0.7a but my system still NEVER reports that I'm running an X58 chipset... Any idea what I should do? I'm currently using 187.66 drivers with the modded .sys file but I hate being married to drivers :(
My motherboard (GA-P55A-UD3) only supports...
I'm running 7x64 (have been since the OEM was found on the web)
I have gone through these steps once before actually :)
After my first attempt (where only GPU2 appeared to be working) I reimaged my system and removed both cards and inserted the one I just acquired (BFG 9800gt oc) in my...
Ok so I'm doing some googling and I see that there are some specific driver patches which provide (or streamline) SLI support to additional games. I have downloaded the EVGA SLI Package (v26 if memory serves correctly) in hopes that it would do the same but I suppose not.
So I guess the...
I have this kind of working currently w/ 2x 9800GT 1gb's on a Gigabyte P55A-UD3 F4 bios P55 chipset:
**Need SLI Bridge**
**Need to determine why SLIC doesn't insert/board doesn't report as X58 when using SLIPatch**Note: ACPI 1.0b (Only supported version)
**Different SLI Modes (Single GPU; Alt...
I'm digging through this thread (damn it's long :)) and I'm curious what ACPI 2.0 has to do with the issue-- primarily because the P55A-UD3 only supports ACPI 1.0b.
Not working on P55A-UD3
I've attempted to do this (all weekend) on my P55A-UD3 and have not succeeded.
The closest I have gotten is seeing SLI enabled, however all processing hits GPU#2 and GPU#1 just hangs out. In most cases I don't even see SLI enabled.
The documentation indicates 2...
