SLI not detected?

Just bought my second 7800gt co and installed it along with the SLI clip. When booting up into windows and running the nvidia configuration thing, it only displays 1 gpu. Do I have to enable the second gpu in bios or a jumper on my mobo for it to be seen?

I am using a DFI NF4 Expert Mobo.


Thanks.

 

I have not seen any options to "enable" it in bios, however in device manager it detects a second "video adapter" so I am d/ling the drivers and going to see if that works.

 
I don't think the option in the bios SAYS SLI literaly. You have to select the setting to split the PCIe lanes to 8x and 8x instead of 1 16x.
 

It looks like I just needed to update the drivers. Both are showing fine in device manager.

Now the fun part. I gotta figure out how to overclock these puppies 🙂
