1122885 2010-08-04 04:30:00 Right so the two cards are in but I can find NO instructions how to turn on SLI and make sure its working, the nVidia site has Win XP screenshots which are totally useless.

Can anyone help?

Should be a "turn it on" (enable SLI ) in cmos.
Look in device manager and you will see it listed twice.

1122887 2010-08-04 04:50:00 Now I may be wrong but don't you have to do something like install the 1st card by itself, then shutdown, add the 2nd card, and install the drivers again? Agent_24 (57)

Trouble is I don't know, I cannot find a tutorial that outlines it step by step anywhere.

1122889 2010-08-04 04:58:00 Doesn't the nVidia control panel itself say anything about SLI? Agent_24 (57)

No its completely devoid of any reference to SLI, which leads me to believe the card is not detecting properly and probably faulty.
