Everytime I have SLI set to enabled, games will flicker.

I have tried locking the v-sync to 60 and nothing. This happens with CS, HL and even 3dmark.

With SLI disabled, no flickering at all.

It happened on XP x64 with 186.18 and now on Windows 7 with 190.62.

Any ideas?

I have just finished installing the monitor drivers (dont know why) and I have also switched the cards (2nd card is now primary and primary is now on 3rd slot)

Nothing, screen flickers less now but still is impossible to play. Could it be the drivers? If so, what should I do? I think this are the only Windows 7 drivers out there.

Is there such thing as LCD not capable of tolerating SLI?

I have tried everything left in the world but nothing worked. I read in one forum one guy changed his screen and flickering went away. Is true, I also changed my screen two weeks ago. Could it be a Samsung screen does not support SLI? SyncMaster 2243SWX

Gautam, you a life saver!!!
How come I forgot about that!

I changed the bridge to one I had before and now it works!

Back to SLI baby :D
