Still having issues with a SLI-DR Expert w/ SLI
Hakaslak replied to Hakaslak's topic in Processors, Motherboards and Memory
I completely agree, thanks Z3R0-CooL. This is getting really dumb, and I've actually resorted to playing Oblivion on a Asus A8N-SLI until this "issue" is resolved. How hard can it be to get SLI to work on a SLI motherboard? As far as the limited knowledge I have on SLI motherboards, this is the only motherboard that seems to be having issues with SLI. Apart from the 'minor' SLI enabling issue with the expert, I love it -

SLI works in server 2003 x32 and x64. I have no idea the amperage, but I really don't think it would work on other motherboards and not on this one, I mean, just how much amperage does a SLI-DR Expert take? This is getting really dumb By the time I can play Oblivion again, I won't remember who my character was or how to play her anymore... Thank you for the replies so far! @centy - Just what does the dog mean? -
Any version of Server 2003, 32 or 64 bit can handle 4GB. Link for 6 month Server 2003 Trial You can get it just like x64

So... can anyone help me out here? I'd really love to keep this motherboard, if only SLI would work... -

I have read the following threads: In regards to SLI: "NF4 Expert - SLI Problem" "NF4 Expert - Enable SLI? Look Here! FIXED!" "NF4 Expert -SLI-DR Expert: SLI doesn´t work !?" "NF4 Expert - SLI-DR Expert with SLI causes Game Crashes" "NF4 Expert - SLI crashing - Signal Frequency is out of range" In regards to 4GB Ram: "NF4 Expert - 4GB on Expert won't run.Update works with 1T" "NF4 Expert - [RESOLVED] Dfi Mods, Angry, Please Help!" In regards to Server 2003: NF4 Ultra-D - Windows 2003 and Directx/Direct3D Well, none of the solutions seem to apply to me... :drool: I have enabled the 8-nc-1-8 PCI-e option in the Bios. My SLI aperature thingy is Disabled. My PCI-e spread spectum is Disabled. I have reflashed the bios to 11/02. (The mobo came with that, but I figured it might have gotten scrambled...). I know that the 7800s, FX-55, and 4 gigs of ram works, since I pulled it out of a working A8N-SLI. Just to make sure, I tested everything in the following motherboards (swapping parts out and stuff): ECS nForce4-A939 Asus A8N-SLI Deluxe Asus A8N-SLI Premium Asus A8N32-SLI Deluxe Abit AN8-SLI Every motherboard works fine with my hardware, EXCEPT the DFI board. Granted, I have no other DFI board, so I could not try that route. Here is a list of Drivers I have tried: x32 Drivers: 84.21_forceware_winxp2k_english_whql.exe nForce4_amd_6.69_winserver_2003_32_english_whql.exe x64 Drivers: 84.25_forceware_winxp64_english.exe nForce4_amd_6.66_winserver2003_international.exe I have not tried older drivers, simply because I do not feel that I should be forced to use old drivers to get such a good motherboard working. If I have to resort to 7x.xx series drivers or something, I'll be going back to Asus and stock speeds. The bottom line is this: SLI DOES NOT WORK. If I try to enable it, my computer starts trippin' bad, and it starts to flicker the screen a lot. Enabling Dual 6600GT in the Bios makes my computer worse. I can play games fine with only one card, but DirectX is acting up, and the computer crashes a lot. I have tried (with this and the aforementioned motherboards) List of Operating Systems I have tried: Windows XP Professional SP2 Windows Server 2003 x32 Enterprise Windows Server 2003 x64 Enterprise The Nvidia CP only shows that I have DirectX 3 installed. I have run the February DirectX 9 update, and dxdiag shows that I have 9.0c.
