HyperSLI (Enabling SLI on non-sli motherboards)

[ShadySWE]

no sli option?

No SLI-option in my NVIDIA Control Panel, the HyperSLI-software runs though and is enabled. I'm running on the NVIDIA 285.62-drivers...

I'm going to try Driver Sweeper and then install HyperSLI again.

Has HyperSLI worked properly for other P67-users?

I would be really happy if you could help me out. I have invested in a new PSU and bought 2 Geforce cards just to be able to play BF3 in high settings. Now it seems I have to buy a new motherboard, gaaah...

If you get it to work you guys should put up a donation-page. It would save me a lot of money if this software would work...

Hallo,

my Problem: HyperSLI 0.7, Windows 7 64 Ultimate, driver 285.79, 2x450 GTS, SLI Bridge, SLI activated, when I start TMPGEnc 5.0.6.38 Video Mastering and want to use CUDA-cores for decoding MPEG 1,2, and 4 I get a bluescreen and a reset ... any suggestions? Everything else works perfekt ...

Thanx a lot,

Sukram.

I can get to work about sli option problem only at weekend. you have to wait.

-=LeKtoR=- your помощь will be рекваерд

 

[Athlon2K15]

going to attempt this on CHIII soon hopefully it pans out as expected. do i need to use a specific forceware driver?

 

[Sukram]

Hrmpf - due to this tool: http://www.nirsoft.net/utils/bluescreenview.zip I found out that the VIA audiodriver was the bug - I updatetd and the next try it worked ... seems not to be a problem with HyperSLI - thank you anatolymik for you quick response

Greetings,

Sukram.

 

[ShadySWE]

do you use sli bridges?

Yes! I also use a SLI-bridge. It is kind of old though, could it be a problem? It would be really nice if you looked into the problem, I have to buy a new motherboard otherwise.

Please tell if you get it to work. We seem to have the exact same problem. What kind of grapic cards are you using? You got Win7? What NVIDIA-drivers?

1. Gigabyte GeForce 470 super OC (700 Mhz)
2. Palit 470 (609 Mhz)
Win 7 64 bit and 285.62 or 285.79(beta)

Ok, ready to help...=\

Soo.... This works great for me.

Current setup:
MOBO: Gigabyte 890FXA-UD5
Video Cards: 2x PNY 560 Ti OC



This is where it gets great. I use VMware ALOT. When I try to start my VM's I get an error from VMware Workstation. I can start Windows without HyperSLI enabled and they work fine. What goes on with AMD-V with this patch?

Running into same issue many have posted to.. SLI option not showing in Nvidia Conrol Panel. Have completed every step listed in previous threads with the latest being the following:

1. Enabled VT in Bios (running Intel DP45SG Extreme Motherboard w/ 2 GTX 260)
2. Unistalled all previous Nvidia drivers (running clean sweeper in safe mode), then rebooted.
3. installed HyperSli 0.7, then rebooted to win 7 SLI option
4. installed latest Nvidia driver (285.79) and rebooted to win 7 SLI option... still no SLI option in Nvidia Control Pannel.
5. Ran "Update" Hyper SLI 0.7 a second time just to make sure.... rebooted and still no SLI.
Note: i have a GTX 260 core 218 and a GTX 260 regular hooked up with SLI bridge installed.

My GPU-Z shows both GPU's installed and physx checked (attached snap shots)... but SLI still shows disabled. Hyper SLI control panel is also running in taskbar. I'm starting to wonder if my mother board will not run SLI regardless of Hyper being installed.. even though it runs crossfire and has 2 PCI-E 2.0 slots. Please help...any other ideas?

Guys,
I noticed this on my GPU-Z screen shots....Does it make a difference that the BIOS on my video cards dont match? Could this be the source of Nvidia not giving me the SLI Enable option?

I have posted a few time just to say Thank you but a few pages ago someone wanted to confirm 3 way SLI works....it does.

What kind of GPU utilization do you get on those when gaming?

 

[johnspack]

Holy moley! 3 gtx580s.... I drool thinking about that.....

 

[jesseleite]

What kind of GPU utilization do you get on those when gaming?

I'm probably confused on how to tell (I'm happy to check for you), but I have video sink on because my fps in bf3 causes video tearing. FPS usually in the 80-90's in bf3 ultra settings 1920 X1080

 

[jesseleite]

I figured it out sorry! in Precision, in BF3 I'm averaging 40% .

cards run 45c (35C at idle)

my only regret was not benching on each Hyper SLI.

BTW- without Hyper SLI I was using the Hydra Chip...OMG what a hunk of junk...you have to wait for drivers to be released for each game.

heads up if anyone doesnt know this doesnt work with 285.79

 

[Z-FiRE]

Guys, you sure HyperSLI works great with P45 chipset ?

I'm using "Asus P5Q Deluxe" with "BIOS v2301" and "Intel Chipset Inf Update Program V9.1.1.1014" : games are still crashing when SLI is activated. They works great with SLI desactivated... not matter SLI surround or not...

What are you talking about? HyperSLI works perfectly fine with the latest driver 285.79 for tons of people.

Many people including me are using P5Q boards with HyperSLI without problems, add your complete system specs and describe your issue more thoroughly.
