How To: Enable SLI on pre-i7/i5 hardware

[agentdax5]

Just tried out halmod v0.81. Still nothing.

He has some problems with the cert i think

The cert is injected fine in registry, I'd changed the first one used, by the one I use, and still a no go.

Are you confortable about BIOS update? If you are please update to latest, and re-do slistringinstaller.

 

[agentdax5]

Ok, going to update to latest and re-do the stringinstaller

I forgot to do the SLIstringinstall, just tried and I got "unabled to create new DSDT table". Uploaded the temp0 it produced.

I went into test mode from post 664

both cards are plugged in and bridged

Great!

I can test it tomorrow, sorry to trouble you with it, I know you are busy.

I don't think my 790GX board will ever be fixed so it is my only chance to test SLI now.

I really appresiate the work you have done for us, thanks and good luck!

So let's get the dat file to mod ( iasl -g) , so please upload it.

 

[agentdax5]

hm, the second video card doesn't seem to show up in Windows any more

Without windows recognaising your card, no SLI for sure. Check cards.

Edit: your dat already have SLIC string no need to mod.

 

[agentdax5]

I really appreciate all your help aGeoM and anatolymik. But it's late here and I've got to head to bed and get some sleep before classes tomorrow. First thing after classes I'll be checking my video cards and getting back to you guys. I hope we can figure this out. You guys are amazing.

 

[anatolymik]

I hope we can figure this out.

don't hope. we'll do it.

 

[agentdax5]

don't hope. we'll do it.

I'll report back tomorrow.
