Hey, really hope you guys can help me out with this. Have been trying to sort it all day, to no avail.

Sig rig specs are

Core i3 530 @ 4.2GHz
Gigabyte H55 UD2H
4GB Corsair XMS3 Cas 9
GTS450 Sli {EVGA SC Editions}
Maxtor 500GB Diamondmax 23
XFI Xtreme Audio
Corsair TX750W
Windows Seven Ultimate X64
LG 22" E2240T LED

Ok so i have been trying to get the sli patch working

I have the latest sli patch version 1.0 final, and 266.58 drivers. When ever i try to boot up in sli mode with 2 gpus in, it gives a black screen after the "loading windows" part. Then just stays on that black screen

How ever, if i try to boot up in sli mode with just 1 gpu in sli mode, it works fine. Tested both gpus and they are fine.

I can also boot in normal windows with both gpus in.

I have reinstalled windows, updated mobos bios, tried different dvi ports. tried drivers as far back as 257,s with sli patches as far back as 0.8b

None have helped, and i am all out of ideas

I really hope you guys can help me out, as i would love to get this sli setup going

Cheers

Are you sure you have downloaded x64 drivers?

I found out a forum, where the guys say that you cannot hack even gtx460 for the date it has been posted. I don't know if they are right, but if they cannot hack 460, the 450 would be even more difficult to make.

Hey thanks for your response

Yeah, well the GTX460 was eventually hacked / patched, it just took a little longer

Althought you may be right, and the 450 might not have been patched yet, do they have some sort of gpu support list that can confirm the gpus that are compatible with this mod?
