THX Nokturnal,
NO i am NOT an elitist BUT i do like to have whatever i can @ my disposal. I have tried many settings & can not get it to display properly. I have done the SLI patch/updates & it does nothing to remedy the problem. Yes, from what i have been led to understand is that Nvidia does not support multi GPU for this game. I have used EVGA sli patch & the nvidia v3 sli but STILL have the same problem. If i can not get this solved in the next few days i will return the game & grab borderlands.

Well i can understand wanting to use what you've paid for, when it will have an effect.
But i can't figure out why you would want to play it with multi-gpu seeing as it runs maxed out on just one card? There will not be any noticeable difference. Take into account all the hassle you are going through to get it working on sli, wouldn't you agree it makes more sense to just ditch one card for a while and give it a go before you ignore the game completely?... I mean it just seems a bit strange to be complaining about something that can very easily be fixed (well i assume it will work with just the one card as it does on mine) and your reason for not doing that is, essentially, for a non existant boost to graphics. Anyway, back to the matter at hand, it might actually be build 7100 that is causing you trouble: http://www.nvnews.net/vbulletin/showthread.php?t=135250 http://www.sevenforums.com/graphic-c...li-7100-a.html People say it didn't support it (back in July) but they now say the evga patch i linked you to earlier, was released, and that sorted most the issues people were having. Sorry but i don't think i can be of anymore use. I'm currently running Windows 7 Ultimate, and the game ran flawlessly with just 1xgtx285, so i would like to suggest again that you just remove one card and enjoy the game (hopefully that will fix it...). Best of luck. Last edited by Nokturnal; 11-02-2009 at 09:39 AM.

ok, thx for the info & i WILL remove 1 card to see if that helps.
I don't see why win 7 build 7100 wouild be a prob.I will see tonight how it goes without the 2nd card. You are right about 1 thing & that is that some games actually run worse when using sli but it's not often.

Well hopefully that works, i can't see any reason why build 7100 wouldn't work either, from what i've read the previous builds (7077 for example) did support sli. But we are talking about Microsoft here, they aren't meant to make sense
 .As for some games running worse with sli, there have also been some complaints (in these forums) about Crysotasis not supporting multi-cpu (or was it gpu?) and it appeared the game actually ran better on a weaker machine. I guess it might be more common with games coming from the smaller teams of developers because they wouldn't have the ability to test on the various machines or to know what their engine is capable of running (and what won't run it..). It is annoying to those who have recently beefed up their computer, but the upside is the games can be played by those who have computers that are a couple of years old too.

THX again, i removed the 2nd card & uninstalled game then reinstalled with patch 1.2 ONLY & it works GREAT !!!
So far this game ROCKS !!! @ 1st i didn't like the melee thing & kicking but i am getting used to it slowly. Can't wait for the next game they release.

That's great news, pity about the lack of sli support but atleast you can enjoy the game now.
Picked a great time to get into the game too, not too long until the next is released.  (Q1 2010)Yeah the melee attacks took a bit of getting used to, but after a while it just becomes habit. Then you'll fire up another FPS and be wishing you could run around stabbing/kicking your enemies.
