You learn more if you find the solution YOURSELF. Remember Google, it is
your friend. Type

Sli Bar on Screen

Or any similar words and you will get a few thousand hits of which the top
ones are most relevant.

What you are seeing is the Load Balancing screen that shows how well Sli is
working for you. I agree stupid to have it there by default!

Go to the Nvidia Control panel (you may have that in your tray if not in All
Programs menu) and under the display Options TURN OFF the Load Balancing
Bar.

By finding that yourself, you will have learned a few things
1. How to FIRST turn to Google
2. You will remember better what you seek
3. You will probably look at the SLi forums on NVidia and may even sign up
and explore their threads
4. You will become an "instant expert" in this problems solution and will
be able to help friends <smile>

You may like to look at

www.nhancer.com/

This gives an enhanced NVidia menu with particular attention to many games
and the "best" setting for those games (it is only for NVidia cards) and has
a lot of SLi tweaks

Re: Big problem

Feas, I am sorry you got the smart-ass responses before mine. It's sad, I
know. However, Feas, do you have an Nvidia graphics card in your computer?
If you do, go to the Nvidia Control Panel under the windows Control panel.
When you open it look at the Menu Bar at the top and click on 3D settings.
You may see
"Show SLi Visual Indicators" with a check mark beside it. Click on it to
make the check go away. Close and follow any other prompts and your problem
will go away. If this is not the problem then all the best in finding a
solution.

All the best Riverdog.

Re: Big problem

Feas, you just need to go into the Nvidia Control panel and look in the menu
bar. There you will see a menu item entitled "3D Settings". Clicking on that
you will see "Show SLi Visual Indicators". Just click on that item to get
rid of the checkmark and you are done. Green bars will go.
Sorry to see that the previous responder was so unhelpful. You came here for
an answer, I know, not criticism.
All the best.

Re: Big problem

OP came for an answer and got educated as well! IMO Frenchy was NOT
unhelpful at all. Whereas the closing comment in your other reply, "If this
is not the problem then all the best in finding a solution" WAS, and would
leave OP floundering at a dead end - with Frenchy's advice, at least he/she
might think of checking Google themselves!
