[SOLVED] 9800 GT SLI Problem

ukiarskicker · 05-07-2009, 10:10 PM

Sup Everyone. Its me again (lol). Thanks to all who read this and to all those who respond.

I have 2 9800 GTs in SLI. Got a Corsair 750Watt PSU. Got a EVGA 750i FTW Motherboard, runs SLI in x16 by x16. Every time I try to watch videos, I get the BSoD (blue screen of death). And every time I turn it off, my mobo makes weir noise, like random clicking, and flickering. Do not know if this is normal. New to SLI so did what the website told me. Maybe I missed something. Can anyone help me to place it in the proper way and see if maybe it is my lack of experience in SLI that caused this problem. Thanks again to all who look at this and especially those who reply.

For my system, obviously, go to "My System" tab under my name.

Again thanks to all.

What are the bsod errors, and is it the same error every time?
You need to narrow down where the ticking is coming from. Might
be a harddrive going bad. If so go to makers website, download diagnostic
tool and run, this will confirm or deny a harddrive issue...

Sound: From Mobo

Same error. missing some .sys file.

Did diagnostics, all good.

Also after I installed a new vid card driver, my OS died on me so had to reinstall.

Remover 2nd vid card so no more SLI, need some help how to set it up properly.

Yea. That covers it all. If anyone can help with SLI would really appreciate it.
