Nvidia SLI Profiles

[snakeplissken]

I have a new AMD 4000 series with the dual core processor and 2 Nvidia 6600GT SLI video cards.  I was told I need to build a profile for the game?  Anyone already do this?

now restart you computer and you will have the option to select from profile1 or aces high use the down arrow to select aces high and hit enter.....it will boot normaly but without all the start ups
you can turn of other serveces that i dont have listed that might be on your computer or even some that i have listed........if you turn off something that keeps you computer from working or causes errors..........reboot and select profile1 and undo what you did.....experament with it
BTW you will still have some startups the you need to turn off in the task manager
hope this helps guys

Wow GREAT email Loony! followed you all the way up until you listed what you had on your system.  For us exteme novices, how do I edit the Aceshigh profile I created?

I think he was asking for the SLI profile for the Nvidia drivers to activate the SLI features for using 2 videos cards vers only 1. Not an XP startup profile.  But U did help me some with that, thx. hehehehe.

it says in here ...on each service listed on your computer..double click on it then click on the "log on" tab.....then click on the profile you named.....then click disable, then ok...now go to the next service on your list and do the same thing. do this all the way down your list till all the services you dont need while playing aces high are disabled......be careful what you disable...if you do something wrong you can log on under profile1 and fix it.

AH doesn't support SLI technology, so his second card will never get used in this game. I have an SLI card and posted a topic asking AH if they supported it before I built my new PC and they told me no. So I just upgraded on vid cards and only put one in. Then if AH ever supports it in the futue I can just go out and get another card. Figured by the time they support SLI,my 6800GT I have now will be 1/3 the cost for the second one. Why buy two if one will never get used. Unless you play other games that support it.
