So thier purpose is to be OK but not great or even very "playable" until 6-12 months when a better VC comes along. Kind of like buying a car that can only go 25mph until better gas is availble....
I got GTX x2 SLI and love em. I am concerned that nvidia does not do HDR and fullscreen AA. Seems to be a severe drawback. Now that new games are supporting it. :(
I am assuming the CD worked to install windows? Did you install CD drivers to do this? Deleting the reference to them in the config.sys and autoexec.bat may help. Also download and install the latest VIA 4-1 drivers from viaarena.com.
:)
I do not have powerstrip. Allthough I was using rivatuner. I uninstalled it and cleaned the drivers off my system and then installed the 80.82's.
Usually I would enable coolbits and then use riva tuner to set the clocks after failing to do it in coolbits (coolbits fails the test) This time...
My clock settings do not get applied corectly when I restart windows. They get stuck on the 2D settings. i have to reset the clock speed in rivatuner to get it set properly. And sometimes eveb after that is sets itself back again.
