Title: Can't get my SLI to work !!
Post by: alan.c.hughes on 22 July 2004, 11:26:33
I've just aquired some old Creative labs Voodoo2 cards and I'm trying to run them in SLI mode. They are the same cards and have works in SLI in the past. I'm running them on win XP with the new v4 gold driver. They both seem to have installed OK and work individually !.

I've tried to follow the instructions to the letter !.

Can anyone help !!

Under XP, it's a known error for SLI not to bve properly detected. Just start up a Glide-compatible game (in Glide mode, of course) and try to run it at 1024x768, if it works, then SLI is working properly.

Thanks for your help, any suggestion os a good game to try (do you know if shrek 2 supports glide or is too new for my card!?). At the moment when i plug the monitor into the 2nd card i get nothing but both the cards work fine individually !.

do you have the SLI cable installed? Under XP, these cards will ONLY work for OpenGL and Glide games, see if you can find one of these to test with. I also understand there are glide tests available from somewhere, not exactly sure where tho.
