asl sli.dst...
It's a simple command i get some warnings...But i get them even if i don't modify anything and still compile....Man i'm just starting to think i'm did in a stupid way...I'm gonna wait till monday for the patch to be programmed...

With only asl sli.dst i can't get *aml file. More than 200 errors ... s*t

with iasl -f sli.dst i got an aml file, but incomplete DSDT table. You can use R&W to check if you DSDT table is ok.

Alright...
Just did it and as soon as i replace the nvlddmkm-64bit_rev_2 file...
I get 800X600 and yeah windowns doesn't like it...

well i tried it on vista 64 and the process went smoothly as far as i know... everything seemed to work and I didnt get any errors, but sli isnt available and my cpu-z still doesnt show x58. Im gonna install xp 32 tomorrow to try to simplify the process a bit and see if I cant get it working there and then work my way back to vista 64 and try to work out the kinks.

Don't Use the Rev_2 File use the other one it works...

I have tested it on Windows 7 x64.

Just restart in Safe mode and Use Driver sweeper to delete any remaining Nvidia Driver files. Then Boot in Normal Mode install the driver Paste the Other file(nvlddmkm.sys) and Sign it as well. Then restart. The system should warn you about Sli now.

From what I read & understood the nvlddmkm-64bit_rev_2 file should be used only with the ASUS SLIC.
sveetsnelda could give a better answer about that.

This is my effect , a fail effect .
Because I can't modify my "dsl" file correctly

Correct. All of the drivers with "rev_2" are hard-coded to detect an ASUS board. You need an ASUS X58 SLIC.

Hi friends.

SLI String Installer.

I think you should try if you want to of course....

1. Unpack

2. Run SliStringInstall.exe

3. Choose your motherboard manufacturer

4. Reboot

I didn't expect to work, but I give it a chance.

but i gota say this is looking good, just need to sort out the problems

anatolymik · Sep 19, 2009

I used the Gigabyte option and it didnt work either-

papatsonis · Sep 19, 2009

i used it on a friend's Asus P5K WinXP 32bit, the .dsl file seems ok, the hal.dll was copied ok , but the everest ultimate reports Sli status "non supported" (dont have this moment 2nd 98009gtx+)

anatolymik · Sep 19, 2009

don't believe in "everest ultimate"
when you used it do you have your apci table modded by SLI string or not?

anatolymik · Sep 19, 2009

please send me temp0 which my program creates

sordido · Sep 19, 2009

Is there a way to know if the mod has been successful using just one card?? I mean.. does the driver warn you about SLI if you just have 1 videocard or there is any other program to confirm that?

anatolymik:

it seems that the program creates the dsdt_GBTUACPI.dsl correctly, but for some reason it doesnt compile

will upload the temp0 ASAP

edit

I started again with the original ACPI table and the program worked well with the ASUS option

. I guess it failed earlier because the ACPI was already modified.

but still I have no idea if I can enable SLI or not :confused:

papatsonis · Sep 19, 2009

i used your auto slic patcher to "edit" the .dsl file, the temp0 folder gets deleted after i press ok the message, now i have already patched (and rebootd) i get the "unable to instal DSDT table" , and in the temp0 file i see double slic entry in the .dsl file.

no. only if you have 2 or more cards
