SLI and 3D crashing
so i purchased the 3D setup, (glasses,monitor). i have an issue. i have 2x 8800gt's. if i enable sli for them and log into World of Warcraft, it crashes and gives me a blue screen. sorry, i tossed the page with the error code. none the less, it does tell me its a driver issue. im wondering if theres a fix. i get kinda crummy framerate while its in the 3D mode and im really hoping for a framerate boost if i could use both the cards.

basic system components are: 750i mb, 2x 8800gt, e8200 o/c to 3.2, corsair 750watt psu striker 7.1 soundcard.

any help would really be appreciated.

thx in advance

Optionally, but recommended, start with a fresh install.

Take out everything from your computer not required to boot up.

If it's not crashing, add an piece back in one at a time until you start crashing.

When it crashes, remove what you just put in, and replace it with a different optional part.

If it doesn't crash with the other part, you've found the culprit.

If you're still crashing, you might have too weak of PSU.
