Basically, Nvidia control panel is recognising the 2 graphics cards and enabling them, however the performance in game remains the same if not a little worse than before.

What's going wrong?!

SLI/fail

Those graphics cards are rather old too, along with the processor. You sure your processor isn't bottlenecking the system?

Depends what game, What games are you running? If it's relatively new, it will require more CPU power..

I don't know then, only thing I can recommend is updating drivers and anything related to SLI (Mobo Drivers).

Cheers, we've already got the latest nforce4 and latest card drivers. Could it be a bios thing?

It may be, I'm not completely familiar with flashing, so I cannot give advice as how to flash them. Check your site for your motherboard, and look under any previous updates, and check to see if anything fixes the SLI with the mobo.

Ex) My motherboard site is:

If I'd like to use Intel's new processors, I'd flash it with the updates.

The least hassle way of lashing you're BIOS with an asus mb is to go to the asus site then look for the ASUS update utility and the new bios you want. Download both the rus the update app get it to search for the bios you downloaded and then select update. (just make sure you dont do anything while it's running or you'll probably feck you're mb up

I Think thats the right links for you (AN8-SLI DELUXE?) but you'd better double check it before you download

**edit for links.

I have an SLI system with a pair of 6600GT's, and I get a very slight increase in performance with SLI enabled in the games I play.  SLI was a mistake I won't repeat.
