Mmmm Is a little complicate for me :rolleyes: I think im going to wait a more easy hack :rolleyes:
For my Maximus Formula X38 I gotta put this certificate in the table???
987134512781Genuine NVIDIA Certified SLI Ready Motherboard for ASUS RAMPAGE II EXT 3287-Copyright 2008 NVIDIA Corporation All Rights Reserved-765289891023 (R)
if you think its a little beyond you matey, then it probaly is, the good news is that TiN has stated that maybe in a few days that they will have a way of doing this, in a much more simplified manner.
for me i done all of the things on the how to, and it didnt work, for some unknown reason, i am waiting for the simplified version too :up:
jejejeje Well, is good the to hear that im not the only one who canīt do this. But Im at work right now and is dificult for me to do this. And in the other hand, is more dificult try this without another GTS :ROTF::ROTF:
Maybe I should get another VGA and try it, I was reeding a little more calm and if you do it slow......maybe can work :up:
PS: But I prefer the easy way :ROTF:
I tried this with two 8800GT:s and my Asus M3A32-MVP board (AMD 790FX + SB600) and Windows XP, but I never got it working:
I found several locations in the DSDT-file that seemed to (sort-of) match what was the described in the how-to and I tried placing the code snippet in a few of them, but it never worked. I also tried replacing the gigabyte "authentication-string" with an "authentication-string" from a Asus Rampage II board that someone had posted in the forum, but that didn't help either.
And I tried both the modified hal-file and the two different modified miniport drivers, but for some reason it never worked.
Could someone please give me a hint or two of how I could get it to work?
Well I think this only work with intel plataforms...........At least I think that....But TiN say that this shoud work with any plataform and any chipset......
confirmed working on a rampage extreme and 2 6800ultras :D

Thx Bill, it seems you still fancy me :p You coming to Paris ?
I'd rather go to Bora Bora again :D
sorry for the late reply bro. it took me 2 hours yesterday to get it working. :D
i was already short of giving up when it finally worked.
@Leeghoofd
my first try i didn't work too and i got a bsod when booting into win xp. just select "last known working config" and it should work again. ;)
benchzowner has done it right.:yepp: for the rampage extreme just take the rampage extreme 2 entry.
you need to put it after the "scope (\_sb)" entry. then it should work
if you guys still have probs i can append my sli.dsl here :)
hth
Good news :rockout::
Make some drafts of english guide:
Activating NVIDIA SLI on all motherboards, detailed HOW-TO
I think I got it going last nite, but my BSOD didn't seem to be related to the patch, but more to a HD dying, my last Samsung F1 (out of 5) has gone I don't even want an RMA anymore of these drives... I can tell you it litteraly flew out of the window
EDIT :
After try 3, I sucked it up and dropped on my knees asking for assistance of the almighty Benchzowner... with pretty good result :up:

So its finally possible again :D Thx alot!
So far everything worked fine with putting the SLIC table in the registry. Only problem for me is the fixed driver.sys. I replaced the original one in the system32/drivers with that included in nvlddmkm-64bit_rev_2.rar, but after rebooting the system, I have 800x600 and windows is telling me there was an error and the driver could not be loaded.
I tried the international 190.62 and also englisch 190.62. same problem. Using Vista x64 DE here. Perhaps thats the problem??
@€dit: guess test mode no switched on - will try again
Leeghoofd you use the SLI bridge for the SLI ????
Hi guys just wondering if anyone could post the SLIC table edited for the P5Q Deluxe?? thanks i seem to screw it up everytime i try LoL
how do I see if SLI is aviable without installing a 2nd graphic card?
edit:
here is my dsdt have i edited it right? http://pastebin.planetteamspeak.com/...n.php?show=316
So all worked fine. Bt I have to use "F8" always to disable driver signature checking. Otherwise the modded driver is not working. So far i tried to do a certificate by myself but thats not working. Any small howto avaiable or perhaps u have a updated version of the x64 vista/7 driver?
@€dit: here my setup:
http://www.abload.de/thumb/unbenannt6og1.jpg
status: running with 2x7900GS on on CTHIM P45 Mainboard
just the F8 isssue and i am happy. second 260GTX coming soon. When my Mosfet Blaock for the 790FX-GD70 gets back I will also try to set it up on the AM3 platform
@€dit2: Problem solved ;)
So is there going to be somekind of autopatcher?
Same question as Darkgnome. I have used the HAL method after replacing the DSDT file. My board now shows up as x58..lol.....Will the SLI option show up in the driver without a second card?
singel 260GTX ->only physx
single 7900GS ->nothing
two 7900GS ->SLi option
I did not try 7900GS+260GTX
:up: Vielen dank!
Kein Problem ;)
can i run 8600gt+9800gtx in sli
or 8500gt+8600gt?
no different video cards can't be mixed. look here

I got Quad SLI with 2xGTX295 working on my Asus Maximus II Formula (Win7 64b booting with F8), but I'm getting better results in 3DMark06 with SLI disabled. I don't have a SLI Bridge that fits, could that be the cause, or am I limited by PCIe lanes on this board? Anyway, I can now run 4 instances of F@H without using dummy adapters, so I'm happy. Thanks! :)

Wicked.. when is someone going to use this for 2x GTX285 on a REX with a 6.5GHz Wolfdale :D
Nice work guys, this is awesome :up:
hmm tried to set up die MSI 790FX-GD70 but got the same error discribed earlier in this thread by another user:
tried also the latest ASL-version, but still the same error. could it be an issue of the AM3-mainboard or the mainboard vendor? The "If" looks normal to me :shrug:Quote:
3866: If (ECEN)
^***
sli.dsl(3866): error: unexpected ASL term type
the SLIC starts at line 11xxx, so it must be another problem.
The ones with issues should host their original DSDT dumps ( the initial .dsl file ) on RapidShare and provide a link here if you want to get any decent help :)
Yay! This actually came through, and it seems that Nvidia doesn't mind this time. Time to pick up another GTX275 :D

Will it work on P35 mobos?
So the think is.......download the 190.62 driver from nv web. Download the nvlddmkm-64bit_rev_2.rar file (to Win 7 x64).......I put the file on the system32 directory and thats it???
I do this cuestion again because the thread is a little disordered for me. Maybe someone can put the hackfiles for 32 bits and 64 in that way it can be more ordered!!!
And we can do a list with the one who make it work. What chipset use, what DSDT file use and what performance gain!!! (Is just a thought)
Well, I really donīt know because I used an other way, insteed of copy, paste and compile I used the "sli string installer", just start the this little app and choose which brand you mboard have and thats it.
Looks like this

Shouldnīt be a problem with your board, just do as the above guide says, itīs rather easy I must say, the things is that you fool the Nvidia driver to think that you run a X58 chipset. :ROTF: (check below with CPU-z)Code:Hi

PLEASE DO NOT QUOTE IMAGES...
Nice work :clap:, I might give it a try on my RE also
I noticed that it show X48 chipset in your CPU-z motherboard tab, in mine it show X58. Which HALmod and slistringinstaller did you use?
Nice work :clap:
Youīre welcome
Nice work :clap:
I noticed that it show P45 chipset in your CPU-z motherboard tab, in mine it show X58 and in my CPU-z memory tab itīs all clear. Which HALmod and slistringinstaller did you use?
Only thing I have noticed so far is that the fans on my 9800GTX do not go down after a 3D app is done even though temp is going down, they are still at the same rpm as at full load. Someone else have that issue?
is there a side effect for doing this driver hack for using SLI on Intel board..?:shrug:
perhaps, northbridge can run much hotter, or something else...
thx...
No, why? Physically load using SLI isn't differ much from two separate videocard setup. PCI-express hub will be hotter, but only few (1-2-3-4 or so) degrees more, just because of more bad airflow. If you use SLI bridge, than no difference at all, I guess.
Tnx to all who made this mod! And I have to ask, is it better 260gtx or 8800gts 512 SLI?!
2x 8800 GTS beats single GTX 260.
Has anyone hosted the crack files anywhere else? I *think* some of them have been pulled from the TPU site
I have the SLIStringInstaller but nothing else. Im hoping to give this a try "openly" I dont want to be tied to a 190 driver
As others have said... thankyou to the guys who have put the work in :D
The GPU's still need to match, correct?
This isn't a wild-card that would let me run my 295 in SLI with my 280 is it?
Ey guys I need some help here!!!

Hey Hazzan :) Which hal.dll mod did you use? Wait.... have you tried cracked SLI on XP with open driver support? I dont want to use 190 drivers... I want me some 16921 magic :p:
:toast:
Seriously - the dev's who've done this are made of 110% win :D
I suggest everyone makes sure that should nVidia come blustering through, we don't roll over and capitulate. Make the information freely available for all to see and use - you can't stop the signal! ;)
I just use like this My Bro...:):)
-Run and instal LHALMod as Admin -- http://depositfiles.com/files/c99sx9y17
-Copy moded nvlddmkm.sys to C:\windows\system32\drivers\ --- OS 32BIT -- http://www.xdevs.com/sli/nvlddmkm.rar
he hal.dll change gives me a no-boot every time :(
Best iv had is SLI: disabled (SLI available)
Im trying 169.21 though. I'll try . 190.62. I really hope this is really, fully opened up... but even as it is... the guys involved have done an excellent job :)
I just tried SLI hack with my HTPC but seems like there is something wrong in itīs bios or in the board itself.
Board is Asus P5E3 WS PRO with latest bios. If I add card in another slot my Vista X86 freezes in loading. Then I did take new HDD and installed Win 7 X64 to it but drivers did not install to that second GeForce 8800 GTS 512MB card, no matter what I did, with and without SLI bridge.
Driver version I tried was 190.89.
the hack is designed to work with 190.62 version of drivers,
@bulldog, did you or can you enable ACPI v2.0 in your bios? if so enable it and re-instal OS, then download latest ACPI driver from microsoft, via win update,
then run the slistring instaler, and latest halmod v8.0,
Weird thing is that drivers will not install even without SLI bridge.
anybody already tried 2x gtx 295 on a rampage extreme?
if not, i'll try it tomorrow and will report back . :)
Im still getting nowhere on XP-32 :(
I think I have 2 problems...
1/ Copying the modded nvlddmkm into system 32/ drivers..... its a new file- its not replacing anything???
2/ the modded hal.dll results in a no boot due to file corruption
Please can someone do an idiot-proof guide for XP? :)
i thought the "nvlddmkm " is only necessary for win vista/win 7 ? i didn't need it for win xp 32bit.
the modded hal.dll doesn't work for me too.
btw. confirmed 2x gtx 295 working on a rampage extreme, altough the score is a bit low for now. :D

Which board sir Kenny ? Otherwise I share ya my file... we had some issues benching with the REX and the 9800GT's, you've seen the scores. Under the hack those cards seemed to perform lower in clocks than with regular drivers, SLI or not. We got loads of image corruptions, unexplainable freezes,...
Luckily the CPU power makes up for it... and we had limited quantity of LN2 there so we didn't have much time to tinker with it...
Hey :D Im using the Asus X48 WS Evo. Im about to try DLing a couple official drivers and see if the Control Panel works better from those. Cant hurt to try
