SLI not working on GA-990FXA-UD5

SLI not working on GA-990FXA-UD5

Hello all,

This is my first time posting on this forum, but I'm having a really difficult time finding why I cannot get SLI to work on this board. I am running 2 GTX570s, I have tried to use two separate SLI bridges in more than one configuration, and I have updated to the newest BIOS the F10b.

Please help

Please post what is happening.  for example: I press the power  button and this happens, then that  happens, and error code # happens.

Does it work with 1 card?

SLI works when cards are plugged in the PCIEX16_1 & PCIEX16_2 slots..  It is clearly labeled on the motherboard in fine print.  Check the manual if you have trouble.

unplug everything from your computer.  only keyboard, mouse, video.  everything else should be unplugged.
