6 posts by 5 people · 08 Jan 1999 - 10 Jan 1999

just got a 8 meg m3d2 to go with the other i have.Now everytime i try gpl with SLI enabled my computer crashes! this happens with halflife too so im assuming it is affecting all 3dfx games. When i disable SLI all is fine again. Ihave tried all the drivers except the 2.05 version which i know has problem with gpl. Anyone had this problem are know of a soluition? What am i doing wrong? neil canning
Have you tried the new card by itself, just in case it's bad? Randy

AFAIK you can only run in SLI mode using 12mb V2's, not using the 8mb ones. Though I may be wrong of course... --- Joeri J. Cox Thrustmaster T2 Upgrade Page - http://huizen.dds.nl/~jjcox neil canning heeft geschreven in bericht ...

Ummmmm, you are. The requirements for SLI are: 1) Both cards have the same amount of memory (2 8mb cards can be SLI'd, but an 8mb card can't be combined with a 12mb card). 2) Both cards have to come from the same manufacturer (I'm not sure if this one is true any more). -- ========================================================= John Simmons - Redneck Techno-Biker (Zerex12) http://www.members.home.net/jms1/index.html John Simmons - Barbarian Diecast Collector http://members.home.net/jsimm/diecast_index.html IGPS Director http://members.home.net/jms1/igps.html If you want to send me email, go to either of the URL's shown above & click "Send Me Mail" in the contents frame. =========================================================

I'm running GPL in SLI mode with 2 8meg Diamond Monster II's. It works fine for me, but I had to reinstall the diamond monster drivers after installing the game. It somehow wiped out my drivers, they're really touchy in SLI mode Hope this helps Yoyo
