Have you tried the FEAR trick?

Copy then rename the GRAW exe to FEAR.

[ThumperDFN]

What if he doesn't have FEAR installed? More details please.

[RLCSeMPeRFi]

No you don't need fear installed. You are just tricking the nvidia drivers to think you're running fear, which then uses the fear profile in nvidia control panel, which in turn should give you sli. This works on alot of other games with poor sli support. I haven't tried it with Graw 1 or 2 so let us know how it works out.

What OS and ForceWare version are you running?

[Want2Snipe]

There is a BAR option on the Nvidia control panel that will show on your game to see if you have activity on both your cards... this way you could verify if yay or nay.

It was said that GRAW 2 took advantage of SLI though.

I have a problem with SLI on the latest XP-drivers (94.24) and I need to Alt-Tab out of the game and reenter to get it to work.

Thanks Guys give your suggestions a try.
By the way I'm using WinXP Pro tried Vista didnt like it went back to XP and using 158.22 nVidia drivers (wish they would release some new non beta ones)

Can you please post your power supply make model.

Also the indevidual outputs.

BFG Feedback
Let's check the size of your power supply. The federal government mandates
that all manufacturers attach a sticker to the power supply with all pertinent
information needed. Sometimes it will be necessary to remove the power supply
from the case to see this label.

This label will contain two main features, the maximum wattage output and the
amount of amperage that can be supported by the +12 volt rail. Your power
supply may have two or even three +12V rails. In this case, you would add the
numbers together to find out the maximum amperage supported. Amperage will be
represented by the letter "A". We will need to know how many amps that the
power supply can handle on the +12V rail and how many rails your power supply
has.

We will also need to observe what the voltages are running at in real time.
There are two ways to perform this. You could go into the BIOS of your
motherboard and under the advanced chipset tab, there may be an option for
voltage monitor. This will show you what the 1.5V, 3.3V, 5V, and the 12V rails
are operating at. We will need to know all four. If your motherboard does not
have this feature, you will need to download PC Wizard 2007 to tell what the
rails are at. This is a free download and a link to the webpage will be
provided at the end of this e-mail. This will provide the exact same
information that the motherboard will give. After installing the program,
click on the icon in the lower right hand corner and this will provide us with
what the rails are at. Again, we will need to know all four rail voltages.


This is if game stuters, game crashes, or bsod.

[Wolfzz1962]

Well it should be enough it is the new Thermaltake 1200Watt

3.3v = 3.344
5v = 5.045
12v = 12.232

1x 8800 Ultra 2 plugs on two V3 rails
1x 8800 Ultra 2 plugs on two V4 rails

SLI nvidia drivers check read me it has some issues depends on version 3dguru has more on this.

I use a single gtx and no probs except the odd crash but nothing serious.
