And here is the Sli Fix:

"The reason you get only 800x600 is because NFS5PU
is not recognizing SLI - it's using only 1 of the cards! Fortunately
there's an easy solution to this. Edit your registry under:
HKEY_LOCAL_MACHINE\Software\Electronic Arts\Need For Speed - Porsche
Unleashed and change the "Thrash Driver" from "dx" to "voodoo2"
Enjoy the higher fps and 1024x768!"

the read me file refers to a 3dsetup.ini file in the archive which I cannot
locate?? all I see is the readme & a setup read me type file...
is it something where i change current setting s somewhere instead of
loading in a new file??

replace "dx" with "voodoo2" to read:
CARD_3Dfx Voodoo2 /M:voodoo2 /I

then run the 3DSetup.exe program again.
The only problem I saw was that some of the menu text are a little blurry and I
dont think "Fraps" frame rate check program will work in Glide.

CARD_3Dfx Voodoo /M:voodoo2 /I

CARD_3Dfx Voodoo2 /M:voodoo2 /I
CARD_3Dfx Banshee /M:voodoo2 /I
CARD_3Dfx Voodoo3 /M:voodoo2 /I

Copy and paste this into a file in notepad and name it 3dsetup.ini and you
have the ini file.
