RE: Nvidia Drivers... then nothing

I ran into the same thing. Apparently there is no native Sli support in the
88.61 Nvidial driver or in Vista itself.. I read on another forum that Nvida
is working on a 90.xx driver that will fix this problem. I have had to
physically remove my number 2 video card in order to get Vista to load. Once
there, it crawls. Hope the new driver comes out soon.
