ALL

We are working to get patch working on latest drivers.
Some of people help are welcome, because some ppl told they have no problems with 258 drivers and SLI.
Other say they have lots of problems with 258 drivers and _OFFICIAL_ X58 sli supported systems with SLI enabled.
So need to know, if it's some kind of protection added, or just bad drivers.

If somebody have X58 sli-ready rig with pair of GTX260/280 or fermi cards, could you test 258 and 259 driver with SLI, if it work ok.

Seems that the master is working on ;) gat to wait I guess :shrug:

I finally managed to get something working today on my X48 Evolution... but it only works if I use one of the black slots at x4. It kneecaps the performance gain entirely :(

Any ideas?

Also... would it be possible to get this to work with 169.21 drivers? I have no luck with them at the moment

i'm on 258.96 and can get sli enabled on gtx460 with a gigabyte x48 dq6.but after a few minutes nvidia driver stops responding and the driver either recovers or pc reboots.pretty sure it's my 4 year old fsp epsilon 700 watt psu doing this and not the sli hack.

Anyone now if this is usable with the GTX460 then?

yes and no.you will be able to enable sli and run for a few minutes but eventually my system shuts down.if some of the previous nvidia drivers supported 460 we would be good to go but only the newest ones do.

You can add the GTX460 to the INF with earlier drivers and should work fine.

Do you mind explaining how to do that, or linking to a place that explains how to do it? Thanks.

Point of View : GTX460 192bit version

G104 = 0E22 (found via device manager, properties.) you can just open a latest driver rev and look for the GTX460 lines ( via search ) and copy paste them in the same spot i the inf file of the older driver

DEV_0E22 = "NVIDIA GeForce GTX 460"

Thanks Tin for the continous support !!

Hey guys.
I have used the Windows 7 32bit SLI Patch, version 0.7a but it crashes my computer after about 15 minutes. I get a black screen with some sound still on, and the only solution is hitting the power button or restart switch.
My specs are: Video: 2xBFG Geforce 8800 GTS 640MB Drivers: 258.96 Mobo:GA-X48-DS4 rev.1.3

I have downgraded to driver 190.62 and used the SLI String installer v.2.0 and the modified file for the driver Forceware 190.62. This works fine without crashes. Sometimes I get a slow down or some stutter but it's no big deal. Are you guys working for modified forceware for version 258.96??

Or do you have some other suggestions that would work with the latest driver? Thanks!

Hey:)

sorry for my noob english, i'm from germany.

Do you have an solution for sli with 2 x 7950 GX2 on X58/P55 boards?

I'm thinking about this a long time, but it's really hard.

you need 182.xxx driver for sli on x58, but this driver doesn't support sli for 7950 GX2. if you take an older driver, sli don't work on X58.

any solution?

Hey man, it works fine with the 266.xx forceware on my system, get the new version of slipatch from http://www.slipatch.com/ ... the 1.0 final. I had your same problem with the beta version and the nvcontrol panel crashing. Hope this helps
