Chyet Posted August 30, 2009 Report Share Posted August 30, 2009 Whenever I start playing a DX10 game with SLI enabled, my computer will BSOD after no more than five minutes of playing. So far I've tried everything I can think of. Tested with lots of different drivers, both old and new (18X - 19X series). Checked for overheating, but either card never goes over 70C (tested in DX9 games, for obvious reasons). I've even tried several versions of Windows, Vista32, Vista64, Win7 64. The only time I can play DX10 games, with SLI enabled, is when playing them on XP, where they aren't DX10 games anymore. If I turn SLI off, there are no problems whatsoever, I can play whatever game I like on whatever OS I want to. So my question is, does anyone have some idea as to what is wrong? This is my Rig: 2 x eVGA 8800GTX QX6600 @ 2.66GHz Striker Extreme 680i SLI Motherboard Win7 64-bit nVidia driver 186.82 If you need more info, just ask.
